12/11/2013 2013/1643 Cover Note- Public statement containing information on shareholder cooperation and acting in concert under the Takeover Bids Directive (ESMA/2013/1642) Corporate Disclosure, Corporate Governance Reference PDF
145.01 KB		 In accordance with its mandate to take appropriate action in the context of takeover bids as per Article 1.3 of Regulation (EU) 1095/2010 (ESMA Regulation), ESMA is releasing a public statement on shareholder cooperation and acting in concert under the Takeover Bids Directive (Directive 2004/25/EC). This statement has been prepared following the review and report by the European Commission on the application of the Takeover Bids Directive and is based on information collected about the practices and application of that Directive. The statement has been prepared in order to help shareholders identify activities in relation to which they can cooperate (insofar as those activities are available to them under national company law), without that cooperation, in and of itself, leading to a conclusion that the shareholders are acting in concert and thus being at risk of having to make a mandatory bid under the Takeover Bids Directive. These activities are presented in the statement in the form of a “White List”. The statement has been prepared by the Takeover Bids Network, a permanent working group operating under the auspices of ESMA that promotes exchange of information on practices and application of the Takeover Bids Directive across the European Economic Area, thereby strengthening a common supervisory culture. The Takeover Bids Network is a specialist group composed of the national competent authorities appointed under the Takeover Bids Directive. The competent authorities represented on the ESMA Board of Supervisors are not in all cases appointed as competent authorities within the Takeover Bids Directive. The authorities not represented on the Board of Supervisors but competent within the area of takeovers are the Austrian Takeover Commission, the Irish Takeover Panel, the Oslo Stock Exchange of Norway, the Takeover Panel of Sweden and the Takeover Panel of the United Kingdom. These five authorities have contributed to the public statement and will have regard to it in the same manner as the other members of the Takeover Bids Network when assessing whether shareholders are acting in concert under their national takeover rules.

Other situations would require a case-by-case assessment.

05/04/2013 2013/455 2013 Regulatory Work Programme Corporate Information Reference PDF
562.57 KB		 2013 Regulatory Work Programme The 2013 Regulatory Work Programme (RWP) is based on ESMA’s 2013 Work Programme, published in October 2012, and provides a detailed breakdown of the of the individual workstreams as outlined in the 2013 Work Programme.  The RWP is based on the draft proposals of the European Commission for a number of upcoming legislative texts including MiFIR, MAR etc, and the timelines and details for various work streams are subject to further revision once the European Union institutions have finalised the relevant legislation.The RWP should normally be published in conjunction with the annual Work Programme on which it is based.  However, the 2013 RWP was delayed due to uncertainty over several components of the EU’s legislative programme.  As this uncertainty has been prevalent over the last two years, ESMA will amend its procedures to allow it to publish the RWP in Q1 of the relevant year, rather than with its Work Programme the preceding autumn.The RWP was approved on 29 January 2013 by ESMA’s Board of Supervisors.
