Supervision of listed companies 

In the following, we explain our supervisory measures in respect of listed companies: supervision focusing on compliance with the disclosure obligation, prospectuses, trading and on insider issues. There is another site for supervision concerning financial reporting (IFRS) which you will find in the navigation bar above.

Supervision of listed companies is moving towards a more risk-based approach. The approach is already used in the supervision of compliance with the disclosure obligation.

The criteria of risk-based supervision reflect listed companies' earlier supervisory history, the sector involved, cyclical and structural changes in the sector, concentration of ownership, company size and its potential impact on the practices and competences in meeting the disclosure obligation.
