Artikel 1 Definitioner

Summary What does Article 1 of the RTS on issuer conflicts of interest say?

This is a short definitions article that establishes the meaning of two key terms used throughout the regulation.

It anchors the regulation's language to existing EU legal frameworks, specifically to MiCA (Regulation (EU) 2023/1114) for the definition of "connected person" and to the Accounting Directive (Directive 2013/34/EU) for the definition of "group".

These two concepts are foundational to understanding who is subject to the conflict of interest obligations and what corporate structures are in scope across the rest of the regulation.

Important points:

Understand that "connected person" refers to the specific categories of persons listed in Article 32(1) of MiCA, as these are the individuals whose conflicts of interest this regulation is designed to govern.
Understand that "group" carries the meaning established under EU accounting law, meaning the regulation's obligations extend across parent and subsidiary structures.
These definitions feed directly into the substantive requirements set out in the articles that follow, so clarity on these terms is essential for compliance.
