the Corporate and Regulatory Committee

Focusing on corporate and regulatory matters impacting executive and employee share plans, the Corporate and Regulatory Committee's purpose is to:

1. analyse and share information and knowledge with SPL members;
2. guide common practice standards where helpful, establishing consistency of approach; and
3. represent the voice of SPL members with external industry bodies, and make representations where appropriate.

Recent work of the committee has included addressing issues raised by the Market Abuse Regulation, GDPR and Brexit, liaising with the Takeover Panel Executive, HM Treasury and the FCA, as well as responding to consultations issued by the Panel, HMT, the FCA and the FRC.
