SMEs : The AMF assists you with all your stock market formalities

25 February 2020

You are a small or medium-sized enterprise? To help you meet the challenges of compliance with stock market regulations, a dedicated team assists you with all your stock market formalities. Attentive to your needs, our SME task force proposes instructive workshops, forums and guides to help you decipher the regulations. Find the useful information here.

An SME team to assist you

Every listed company has a key contact person in the AMF's Corporate Finance Division.

In addition to this regular contact person, the AMF has formed a multi-disciplinary cross-cutting team to assist you specifically. The "SME" task force comprises profiles coming from various AMF departments which interact on a daily basis with issuers and the regulatory authorities on the national and European levels (the Corporate Finance Directorate - DE, the Corporate Accounting and Auditing Directorate - DAC, and the Regulatory Policy and International Affairs Directorate - DRAI). Astrid Milsan, who is the Managing Director in charge of the AMF's Corporate Finance Directorate and the Corporate Accounting and Auditing Directorate, manages this team.

Workshops and forums to help you cope with regulatory requirements

For educational purposes, the SME task force organises thematic workshops to explain the regulations pragmatically (for example, on financial communications, on the consequences of the entry into force of the Market Abuse Regulation – MAR, etc.).
