(61)Regulation (EU) No 596/2014 establishes a robust framework to preserve market integrity and investor confidence by preventing insider dealing, unlawful disclosure of inside information and market manipulation. It subjects issuers to several disclosure and record-keeping obligations and requires issuers to disclose inside information to the public. Six years after the entry into force of Regulation (EU) No 596/2014, feedback from stakeholders collected in the context of public consultations and expert groups highlighted that some aspects of that Regulation place a particularly high burden on issuers. It is therefore necessary to enhance legal clarity, address disproportionate requirements for issuers and increase the overall attractiveness of Union capital markets, while ensuring an appropriate level of investor protection and market integrity.
