The FCA’s New Prospectus Rules: A Bold Reset for UK Capital Markets

On 15 July 2025, the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) released Policy Statement PS25/9, confirming the final rules under the Public Offers and Admission to Trading Regulations 2024 (POATRs). These reforms overhaul the UK’s prospectus regime, replacing the retained EU Prospectus Regulation and taking effect from 19 January 2026. The new framework aims to simplify capital raising, reduce costs for issuers and enhance the UK’s competitiveness as a listing venue.

The FCA’s reforms are part of a broader government strategy to ensure regulation is targeted, proportionate and growth-oriented. They follow extensive consultation, including CP24/12 and CP25/2, and reflect recommendations from Lord Hill’s UK Listing Review and the Secondary Capital Raising Review.

ESG metrics have not historically been included in financial reporting, though companies are increasingly making disclosures in their annual report or in a standalone sustainability report, and regulatory requirements for such disclosures, including from the SEC, are expanding....Read more

What Is Greenwashing?

Greenwashing is the act of making false, misleading, or exaggerated claims about an entity’s environmental or sustainability record or practices, including the environmental impact of operations, products, or services. Greenwashing reflects a gap between the symbolic and substantive action taken by a company or product in order to gain an environmentally friendly image. For example, greenwashing occurs when a company spends time and money advertising goods or services as environmentally friendly, closer to nature, or otherwise “green,” when the impact on the environment is not materially distinct from other comparable goods or services....Read more
