Study Notes
Prevention and Detection of Market Abuse
- Trading members must thoroughly assess client orders before entering them into the JSE trading system. They must ensure these orders, and any resulting trades, won't violate Section 80 of the Act, which prohibits specific trading practices.
- Trading members are responsible for equipping all employees involved in client order receipt and transaction execution with a comprehensive understanding of market abuse provisions outlined in Sections 77 to 80 of the Act. This includes providing adequate training and guidance to enable employees to recognize and prevent transactions that could violate these provisions.
- Trading members must incorporate specific monitoring procedures to scrutinize orders entered and trades executed on the JSE trading system, both by themselves and their employees. The goal is to identify and take appropriate action against suspected market abuse, specifically focusing on potential breaches of Sections 78 and 80 of the Act.
- While comprehensive monitoring is essential, trading members are not obligated to meticulously review every single order and trade undertaken by them or their employees for potential market abuse.
