The market abuse regulation has the objective of investor protection and increasing market integrity. Regarding disclosure of inside information according to art.17.1 there is a challenge for issuers to unravel when there is inside informationand from when it has occurred, and that results in very high compliance costs,especially for SMEs. Given that SMEs is the backbone of the EU economy it isof importance to simplify the regulation and make the capital market more accessible to the SMEs. The Capital Market Union aims to get investments flowing within the EU, tocreate a strong economy, as integrated capital markets are essential for the competitiveness and independence of EU. To achieve the goals, changes must bemade. The capital market within the EU has fallen behind and is much smallerthan for example, US, and feedbacks from market participants shows that compliance costs are relevant when companies decides whether to go public or seekprivate funding. There is a decline in listing within the EU, especially for SMEs,and without reasonable access to finance through alternatives to expensive bankloans, SMEs and the EU economy are not given the best chance for growth. A well-functioning capital market is crucial for an efficient allocation of capitalbetween issuers and investors. SMEs could be a key driver that creates new innovations and jobs. As said, they are the backbone of the EU economy and forthat reason there should be a simplification of the regulation.
