PRM 1.5 Notification requirement for admission to trading

This section applies to an issuer who is applying for admission to trading of transferable securities that are not fungible with any other transferable securities already admitted to trading, except where the transferable securities are transferable securities to which PRM 1.4.4R applies.

An issuer must notify a RIS of the admission to trading of transferable securities, and ensure the dissemination of this information in such a manner that it is capable of being disseminated to as wide a public as possible, and as close to simultaneously as possible, in the United Kingdom, on the same business day that the admission to trading occurs.

The issuer must also ensure that the RIS, at the same time, files the notification in PRM 1.5.2R with the FCA using the FCA-specified application programme interface (API) and standardised schema referred to in DTR 8.4.30R as if the notification were regulated information.

For the purposes of PRM 1.5.2AR, the headline information relevant to the notification is the headline information for ‘Admission to Trading’.

The notification referred to in PRM 1.5.2R must contain the following information: 

(1) the name and legal entity identifier (LEI) of the issuer;         

(2) the regulated market on which the transferable securities have been admitted to trading; 

(3) the name, type and International Securities Identification Number (ISIN) of the transferable securities admitted to trading; 

(4) the number of transferable securities admitted to trading; 

(5) the date the transferable securities were admitted to trading; and

(6) if a prospectus has been published in relation to the transferable securities admitted to trading: 

     (a) the date of the prospectus; 

     (b) if applicable, the date of any supplementary prospectus; and 

     (c) a hyperlink to where the prospectus and any supplementary prospectus is published.
