Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) · London Stock Exchange (LSE) · GBP
75+ TRANSACTIONSThe UK has the longest tradition of director dealings disclosure in Europe. Despite Brexit, the UK maintained its own version of MAR, and the FCA continues to enforce some of the strictest insider transaction reporting standards anywhere. Director dealings on the London Stock Exchange are closely watched by institutional investors worldwide.
The FCA publishes insider transactions through its public disclosure register. UK filings are reported in GBP and follow the UK MAR framework, which mirrors EU MAR in most respects. The FCA is known for its proactive enforcement — getting on the wrong side of UK insider trading rules carries serious consequences, which means the filings you see are taken seriously by the people making them.
We scrape the FCA's disclosure register daily, capturing every director dealing and insider notification. Each record includes the insider's name and role, transaction details, share volumes, prices in British Pounds, and total values. We cut out the noise — no options exercises, no share awards — just real market transactions.
London is one of the world's deepest equity markets, and director dealings have been studied more extensively here than almost anywhere else. Academic research on the LSE has consistently shown that director purchases outperform the market, especially in smaller companies and when multiple directors buy around the same time. If there's one market where the insider signal is well-documented, it's the UK.
We track insider activity across the LSE — from FTSE 100 blue chips like Shell, AstraZeneca, and HSBC to the vibrant AIM market where insider buying in small caps can move the needle significantly.
