Feb. 26: TSE Releases "Revision of the Listing Rules in Order to Expand English Disclosure in the Prime Market"

Tokyo Stock Exchange, Inc. (TSE) released "Revision of the Listing Rules in Order to Expand English Disclosure in the Prime Market" (Outline of Revisions) on February 26, 2024.
TSE considers the Prime Market to be a market for companies that focus on constructive dialogue with global investors. It will therefore revise the listing rules to expand English disclosure in that market. TSE hopes that this will attract more overseas investment in Prime Market-listed companies and encourage improvements in their corporate value through dialogue with overseas investors.
TSE will take comments from the public regarding this matter from February 26 to March 27. For more details, please view the following link.
