Nasdaq Stockholm is a regulated market governed by the Swedish Securities Market Act (Law (2007:528) on the securities market) and subject to the supervision of the Swedish Financial Supervisory Authority (Sw. The Financial Supervisory Authority).
According to the Swedish Securities Market Act, a stock exchange must have clear and transparent rules for the admission to trading of financial instruments on a regulated market. Financial instruments may only be admitted to trading when conditions exist for fair, orderly and efficient trading. Through the issuer rules, Nasdaq Stockholm AB meets the conditions established by the legislator. The rules for Nasdaq Stockholm also align with existing EU directives and regulations, such as the Market Abuse Regulation (MAR), the Transparency Directive (EU), the Markets in Financial Instruments Directive (EU) (MiFID II) and the (EU) Takeover Directive.
Therefore, the rules include specific requirements for issuers and their financial instruments to be admitted to trading on Nasdaq Stockholm, including rules defining the disclosure requirements of an issuer with respect to the market and Nasdaq Stockholm.
