UPDATE: Directors and officers disclosure regulations approved
In the Spring and Winter 2003 issues of Financial Services Quarterly, we reported on a discussion paper foreshadowing regulations to ensure that information about directors' and officers' shareholdings in listed companies is up to date and transparent.
The Securities Markets (Disclosure of Relevant Interests by Directors and Officers) Regulations 2003 were promulgated in December last year and will come into force on 1 March.
Announcing the regulations, Minister of Commerce, Hon. Lianne Dalziel stated that "the purpose of the regulations is to improve transparency by ensuring that information about directors and officers holdings is up-to-date and relevant to the market ... and should reduce opportunities for insider trading and market manipulation".
