The Montenegro Capital Market Authority has adopted draft rules that would set detailed requirements for tied agents of investment firms and for their entry in the Register of Tied Agents. The draft covers the criteria and conditions a person must meet to be appointed as a tied agent, the content and deadlines for notifications of such appointments, and the content, maintenance and accessibility of the register. The measure develops provisions in the Capital Market Law on the conduct of tied agent activities. It is intended to improve capital market transparency and strengthen the regulatory framework for investment services in line with European Union standards and practice. The authority presented it as part of its broader work to build a more comprehensive and modern regulatory framework. Comments on the draft may be submitted during a 14-day public consultation period from publication. After reviewing the comments received, the authority will determine the final text of the rules.
