On Tuesday 30 May 2023, from 14:30 to 16:30, the ECON Committee held a public hearing on " EU Listing Act: Is the EU Listings Regime fit for purpose?".
The public hearing aimed at looking into the current trends in listing, the changes in third jurisdictions and possible implications for the EU. The hearing also focused on how to improve EU companies' access to finance and, to this end, the role of the Listing Act legislative package, put forward by the European Commission in December 2022 as part of the initiative to develop further the EU's Capital Markets Union (CMU).
