Market conduct is, and will almost certainly remain, an area of concerted regulatory focus. Market abuse risk is also arguably the single greatest risk faced by investment managers on a day-to-day basis. Whilst many texts have been published into the generalities and technicalities of the market conduct regime, this book is the first to focus on the so-called ‘buy-side’.

Market Conduct for Investment Managers is designed to help investment professionals navigate this important and complex area by raising levels of awareness and intuitive understanding through the use of real-world insights, case studies and practical scenarios. Now in its third edition, this publication is widely-regarded as the authoritative practical guide on this important topic and essential reading for investment management professionals.

This third edition has been updated to include new content on:

Guidance provided by the FCA in Market Watch 75, published in October 2023
SEC warnings in April 2022 over the use of alternative data by investment managers
The regulatory treatment of investee company meetings and dialogue under the definition of MNPI
The FCA’s enforcement action and resulting financial penalty imposed on Sir Christopher Gent for the unlawful disclosure of inside information
The risk management roles and responsibilities of the first line of defence within a firm
Recent practical examples, including: enforcement cases, which assist in interpreting and applying the market conduct requirements in the context of asset management.
