The Single Programming Document
The Single Programming Document (SPD) outlines ESMA's planned activities and corresponding resource needs for the upcoming three years, pursuant to Article 63 of the ESMA Regulation. This document encompasses both multi-annual priorities and a preliminary draft of the Work Programme for 2026, which undergoes further refinement by September of the current year.
