France: The Regulation of Market Manipulation

Abstract

It may strike those familiar with French law as astonishing that in 12 years of existence, the new anti‐manipulative provisions have given rise to so few decisions. Several factors may account for this situation: first, there are inherent problems and limits in operating the existing criminal provisions; secondly, a lot of manipulation cases are dealt with under different legal concepts or different rules.
