Securities (Disclosure Obligations of Reporting Issuers) (Amendment No. 2) Rules 2013
The Financial Services Commission of Mauritius issued these rules to amend the principal disclosure regulations by defining foreign investors and mandating monthly reporting obligations for listed companies. These entities must now file detailed transaction returns with the Commission and their respective securities exchange, specifying investor names, dealers, trade dates, quantities, prices, and the aggregate voting share percentage held by foreign investors. The amendments commenced on 1 April 2013, thereby standardizing transparency and regulatory oversight of cross-border equity investments in Mauritian markets.
