2 ESMA updates the European Single Electronic Format reporting manual
The European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA), the EU’s securities markets regulator, today published the annual update of its Reporting Manual on the European Single Electronic Format (ESEF).

It’s an update – enough said.
