It has been ten years since the Market Abuse Regulation (MAR) came into force, and with it, a fundamental shift in how European markets identify, report, and prosecute market abuse. MAR raised the bar for firms, extended the regulatory perimeter to markets that had previously operated in the shadows, and built the surveillance infrastructure that modern capital markets now depend on.

In this eBook, we unpack the legacy of the landmark regulation and its impact on market integrity, trade surveillance, and financial markets more broadly.
