On 12 June 2026, the European Commission adopted Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2026/1291 (“New ITS”), introducing a revised set of implementing technical standards under article 18 of the Market Abuse Regulation (“MAR”) on insider lists. This New ITS repeal and replace Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2022/1210 (“Old ITS”), marking a further step in the broader reform agenda under the EU Listing Act.
We had previously considered ESMA’s technical advice on the New ITS in October 2025.
Similar to the Old ITS, the main purpose of the New ITS is to set out the applicable insider list templates to be used by issuers in terms of article 18 MAR.
Alignment with EU Listing Act Objectives
