Väärtpaberivalvega

Väärtpaberivalvega refers to the oversight and regulation of securities markets. This process aims to ensure market integrity, protect investors, and promote fair and efficient trading practices. In Estonia, the primary authority responsible for väärtpaberivalvega is the Estonian Financial Supervision Authority (Finantsinspektsioon).

The core functions of väärtpaberivalvega include supervising stock exchanges, clearing houses, and other market participants. This involves monitoring trading activities for signs of insider dealing, market manipulation, and other fraudulent activities. Regulators also oversee the issuance of securities, ensuring that companies provide accurate and comprehensive information to potential investors through prospectuses and other disclosures.

Investor protection is a key objective. This is achieved through regulations that set standards for transparency, disclosure, and the conduct of financial intermediaries. Investors are provided with rights and recourse in case of misconduct. The goal is to build confidence in the securities markets, encouraging broader participation and investment.

Väärtpaberivalvega also contributes to the overall stability of the financial system. By ensuring that markets operate smoothly and fairly, it helps to prevent systemic risks that could arise from market disruptions or widespread investor losses. This regulatory framework is essential for the healthy functioning of Estonia's capital markets.
