On 20 December 2023, the FCA published finalised proposals for the merger of the existing premium and standard equity listing segments into a new single equity segment. A detailed discussion of these proposals, feedback received on its May 2023 (CP 23/10) “in principle” consultation of the proposed listing regime changes, details of the other listing segments changes it is proposing to make, revisions to the listing rules’ sponsor competencies requirements, and a first tranche of draft new listing rules covering just the new equity segment, are all set out in Consultation Paper 23/31 (CP23/31).
