Investigations into alleged market abuse are the purview of the FCA, who I understand are aware of these allegations.<p> </p>The Government takes any attempt at market abuse extremely seriously and is committed to ensuring that financial markets are sound and transparent. The Market Abuse Regulation (MAR) strengthens the previous UK market abuse framework by extending its scope to new markets, new platforms and new behaviours. It contains prohibitions of insider dealing, unlawful disclosure of inside information and market manipulation, provisions to prevent and detect these acts, and powers to take enforcement action against those who do. I am confident that under MAR we have robust systems and controls in place to preserve market integrity and protect investors. answering member printed Lord Agnew of Oulton question first answered 25/02/2020 14:29:49 answering member 4689 label Biography information for Lord Agnew of Oulton
