The Congress of Stock Market Lawyers SEG, scheduled for March 3-4, will focus on critical discussions about the implications of new regulations following the enactment of the Listing Act. The first day will feature twelve discussion blocks, where one of the primary debates will center on the questions of using exemptions in prospectus requirements for stock issuance. Experts will evaluate the current legal framework and market practices one year after these regulatory changes were implemented, exploring the practical aspects and risks involved in preparing informational documents under these new exceptions.

Particular attention will be given to how the Listing Act has created new opportunities for issuers to conduct stock emissions without the necessity of preparing a full prospectus. Despite these prospects, the use of such exemptions in public offers has been limited up to this point, more frequently appearing in the context of admitting shares to trading on regulated markets. However, experts believe there may be an increase in the application of these regulations, thus reshaping how issuers approach capital acquisition through public offerings.

The Congress will also address the practical challenges that come with correctly preparing documents needed to utilize these exemptions effectively. As the event gathers professionals from various legal and financial backgrounds, it is poised to facilitate a deeper understanding of the evolving landscape of stock market regulations, potentially enabling issuers to navigate new pathways to capital more efficiently.
