Section 122G: Publication of information and corrective statements by issuers

Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 · 2000 c. 8View on legislation.gov.uk

Part VIII: Provisions relating to market abuse

If condition A or B is met, the FCA may require an issuer or emission allowance market participant to publish—

specified information; or
a specified statement.

Condition A is met if the FCA considers that the publication of the information or statement is necessary for the purpose of protecting—

the interests of users of financial markets and exchanges in the United Kingdom; or
the orderly operation of financial markets and exchanges in the United Kingdom.

Condition B is met if—

the information or statement corrects false or misleading information made public, or a false or misleading impression given to the public, by that person; and
the FCA considers that the publication of the information is necessary for the purpose of the exercise by it of functions under the market abuse regulation or under supplementary market abuse legislation.

Information or statements required to be published under this section must be published—

before the end of such reasonable period as may be specified; and
by any method as may be specified.

If a person fails to comply with a requirement to publish information or a statement under this section, the FCA may publish the information or statement.

But before doing so, the FCA must give that person an opportunity to make representations to it regarding its decision to publish the information or statement under subsection (5).

In this section—

  • "emission allowance market participant" has the same meaning as in Article 3.1.20 (definitions) of the market abuse regulation; and

  • "specified" means specified by the FCA.

For the meaning of "issuer", see section 131AB.
