Financial Markets Conduct Act 2013

Dealing in financial products on markets - Disclosure of relevant interests in quoted financial products by directors and senior managers of listed issuers

303A: Extended time for disclosure for trustees, executors, and administrators

You could also call this:

"More time to disclose interests for people managing someone's estate"

Illustration for Financial Markets Conduct Act 2013

If you are a director or senior manager of a company listed on the stock market, and you get a special kind of interest in a financial product because you are looking after someone's estate, you have more time to tell people about it. You get this extra time if the interest is in a product from the company you work for, or a related company, or a special kind of derivative. You must tell people about the interest within 14 days after you are officially allowed to manage the estate, under the Administration Act 1969, instead of following the usual time limit in section 297 or section 298.
