New Notification
On January 20, 2007, the German Transparency Guidelines Implementation Law (TUG) went into effect to supplement the existing Securities Trading Act. The law governs the information and disclosure obligations of both, listed companies (the issuer) and investors as such, when a shareholder exceeds or falls short of his percentage threshold of the voting rights. Compared to the previous regulations, the notification thresholds were changed and the notification period was shortened.
Basically, any investor whose shareholding in a German listed company exceeds or falls short of a certain threshold starting with 3 percent and followed by 5 percent, 10 percent, 15 percent, 25 percent, 30 percent, 50 percent and 75 percent of the voting rights, is obliged to notify the company and the Federal Supervisory Office (Bundesanstalt für Finanzdienstleistungsaufsicht – BAFIN) within 4 trading days respectively. The issuer on his part is required, within three trading days, to publish this information Europe-wide and forward it to the Business Register.
