FESE Response To ESMA Consultation Paper On Possible Delegated Acts Concerning The Prospectus Directive

Date 19/08/2011

FESE fully agrees with European supervisors that there is an adequate level of flexibility in the current Prospectus regime.

Furthermore, FESE does not support the proposal of what is called a «proportionate» regime for SMEs.
