MAR and Inside Information
'Inside information' under the EU Market Abuse
Regulation 2016 ("MAR") is information of a precise
nature that has not been made public relating directly or
indirectly to one or more issuers or financial instruments that, if
it were made public, would be likely to have a significant effect
on the prices of those financial instruments or on the price of
related derivative financial instruments.
