In 2001, The Financial Services Authority (FSA) announced changes to the Listing Rules, enabling listed companies to publish regulatory information using a choice of regulatory information services (RIS). For the first time, listed companies had a choice of how to submit their announcements to the market, in compliance with UKLA, Panel and AIM market rules. A number of RIS, including Cision, were licensed to distribute regulatory news in accordance with the FSA guidelines. The changes to the dissemination of price sensitive news and the ending of the monopoly formerly held by Regulatory News Service of the London Stock Exchange, have been effective since April 2002.

FirstSight from Cision has been around for six years and during the last two years has been under continuous development for the UK market, allowing you to disseminate your company’s regulatory news in a secure environment quickly and easily.
