The EU investment-services rule family covering ISD, MiFID, MiFID II, and market-abuse controls.
EU Investment Regulation is the regulation landing page for EU investment-services rules, MiFID, MiFID II, market-abuse rules, AIFMD, ISD, and investor-protection frameworks. It keeps related terms in one branch so readers can move from a broad compliance question to the article that owns the regulatory evidence.
Use this page when EU investment regulation changes authorization, market access, transparency, conduct, or investor-protection duties. Use the parent Market Disclosure page when you need the broader regulation map. For an individual decision, confirm the rule source, jurisdiction, covered party, effective date, filing or record, and compliance consequence before relying on the term.
