ASIC has today released an update to the Internal Dispute Resolution (IDR) data reporting handbook to reflect recent legislative and regulatory changes in the Buy now, pay later (BNPL) and digital asset sectors. The updated handbook also includes a new product category for mutual risk products (MRPs), enhancing accuracy for firms reporting complaints about these products. ASIC is releasing this new handbook early, to allow firms sufficient time to make necessary changes to their reporting systems and processes. Financial firms should familiarise themselves with the changes now to ensure they are recording complaints in accordance with the updated product and issue numbers. IDR reporting is unchanged for the upcoming January to February 2026 submission window, which covers complaints open or received between 1 July and 31 December 2025. Firms will first report complaints using the updated handbook in the July to August 2026 submission window, which covers complaints open or received between 1 January and 30 June 2026. The updated handbook and an overview of changes is available from ASIC’s IDR data reporting page. To give legal effect to the updated handbook, ASIC will amend ASIC Corporations (Internal Dispute Resolution Data Reporting) Instrument 2022/205 prior to the commencement of the July to August 2026 submission window.

Bouali Sina Petrochemical Company (BSPC)’s executives joined Tehran Securities Exchange (TSE)’s opening bell ceremony on Sunday 30 November 2025. The ceremony, held in the presence of senior TSE officials and a group of market participants, provided an opportunity to review the company’s key achievements and outline its future strategic plans. Delivering the keynote address, Mr. Mohammad Javad Badri, BSPC’s Chief Executive Officer praised the TSE for the initiative and highlighted the company’s performance since its listing.  “Since BSPC’s listing at the capital market, the company has placed transparency and accountability at the heart of its operations,” he added. The CEO identified frequent regulatory changes and administrative interventions as major challenges facing capital market participants. He also emphasized: “Regulatory certainty is essential for long-term industrial planning and for removing barriers to development.” Reaffirming the company’s dedication to shareholder engagement, he stressed the importance of harnessing capital market instruments to drive future growth and operational expansion. Notably, BSPC was listed at TSE in November 2020 under the ticker symbol “BONA” and currently holds the eighth position by market capitalization among the 35 companies in the Chemical Products Industry, with a market value exceeding IRR 680 trillion. The company plays a significant role in Iran’s non-oil exports and is integrated into the broader value chain of the National Petrochemical Company, contributing to the country’s industrial and economic development. With an area of 36 hectares, BSPC is located in the Special Economic Zone of Bandar-e Emam, Khuzestan Province, northwest of the Persian Gulf. This complex is the third aromatic project in Iran’s petrochemical industry, the commissioning of which began in April 2001, and its production units were launched in 2004.

Last evening, the Austrian financial community gathered once again for the traditional Wiener Börse Punsch. In the atmospheric courtyard of Palais Caprara-Geymüller, around 600 guests from the financial sector, business and politics came together. This year marked the 23rd edition of the event. As in previous years, the evening also reflected commitment to social responsibility: For a good cause, jams produced by the Vienna-based company “Unverschwendet” (Unwasted) were sold. What makes these products special is that they are made from surplus yet perfectly edible ingredients that would otherwise have gone to waste. All proceeds from the sales at the Wiener Börse Punsch will benefit the integrative START education programme. In addition, CEO Christoph Boschan and CFO Andrea Herrmann presented a donation cheque of EUR 10,000 to the initiative on behalf of Wiener Börse AG.

The Energy Trading Enforcement Forum (ETEF) is the forum where energy and financial regulators and the two EU Agencies (ESMA and ACER) meet annually. At its 8th forum in Paris on November 6, the main topics discussed included trends in manipulative behaviour based on algorithmic trading and the first referrals from National Competent Authorities to prosecutors for market abuse involving energy products classed as financial instruments. The forum also covered the importance of data sharing and the continued cooperation between authorities, as the regulatory oversight of potential market abuse in the trading of energy and financial products falls under two EU regulatory frameworks: the Wholesale Energy Market Integrity and Transparency (REMIT) and the Market Abuse Regulation (MAR). For more information on the work of ACER and ESMA to protect energy and financial markets from abuse, visit the dedicated pages on the ACER and ESMA websites. See the joint press release.

Changes will reflect the LME’s strategic goal of enhancing liquidity on the LMEselect electronic platform. Client electronic trading and clearing fees to drop by between 7.4% and 8.5%. Inflationary increase of between 3.4% and 3.7% for member electronic transaction fees. “All-in” transaction cost for a client outright trade on LMEselect falling by 4.5%. Key physical market transactions (Ring and short-dated carries) limited to inflationary fee increases. Larger increases for all other inter-office transaction fees (between 20.0% and 20.3%), except for options which will only see an inflationary increase. No change to financial OTC booking fee given recent changes, with future intention to reflect inter-office fee increase. Most fee changes introduced from 1 January 2026; venue-differentiated client transaction fees to apply from 1 March 2026. The LME Group has today set out its combined trading and clearing fee schedule for 2026. The changes reflect a recalibration of the schedule to align with the LME’s strategy to enhance electronic liquidity and price transparency while supporting physical market trading practices. Matthew Chamberlain, LME Chief Executive Officer, said: “As we continue to advance our market structure modernisation work, we will be aligning our fee schedule more closely to our strategic aspirations. As such, we are pleased to be reducing client electronic fees, underscoring the confidence we have in our vision to enhance electronic liquidity through greater transparency and price competition. “While we believe that higher fees are appropriate for more bespoke inter-office trading, we remain committed to maintaining lower fees for trades that are key to physical market trading practices, such as Ring trades and short-dated carry trades on all venues – which ultimately benefit the whole market.” Client fee reductions for electronic trading Client transaction fees for trades executed on LMEselect will see significant reductions of between 7.4% and 8.5% (across outrights and carries). This is intended to incentivise centralised electronic trading that contributes to transparent price formation. This means that for a client “all-in” LMEselect trade for an outright date (which includes the combined member and client fees), there is an overall reduction of 4.5%. This will be of value to the LME’s growing electronic trading community, which has been a key contributor to recent LME volume growth. More broadly, as part of its market modernisation measures, the LME is introducing a new crossing order type in 2026, which will allow any exchange trade to be made visible on the electronic order book. This means such trades would qualify for the discounted electronic fees and facilitate lower-cost execution for any type of client, including trades subject to the LME’s forthcoming block thresholds. Additionally, give-up and client trade-at-settlement (TAS) fees will be held flat, reflecting their important role in the enablement of electronic liquidity. Larger inter-office trading and clearing fee increases Larger increases to both member and client inter-office fees (between 20.0% and 20.3%, across outrights and long- and medium-dated carries) will also be introduced, which again reflect the LME’s desire to direct as much trading as possible to the transparent electronic orderbook. Subject to block threshold rules, members and clients will still be free to execute in the inter-office market, with more bespoke inter-office trades attracting a higher fee. As an exception, options trading and clearing fees will rise only by inflation, acknowledging the forthcoming electronic options market launch as outlined in the recently published options roadmap. Key physical market activities Short-dated carries, used by those wishing to align hedges with physical contracts or shipments, will see no fee change when executed on the Ring and will see an inflationary fee increase when executed in the inter-office market. This will support the LME’s date structure and physical market sector. Additionally, the LME intends to expand the definition of a short-dated carry to coincide with the introduction of block thresholds. This means all users will benefit from a lower fee for a wider set of carry trades, irrespective of the trading venue. Financial OTC booking fee held at current levels As previously stated, the LME’s intention is that the “non-lookalike” financial OTC booking fee should be aligned with inter-office fees, and that the “lookalike” financial OTC booking fee should be charged at a premium. However, given the recent introduction of the differentiated OTC booking fee, the LME will not reflect the inter-office fee increase in either booking fee at this time. Other inflationary fee increases All other transaction fees will increase in line with inflation (between 2.6% and 3.7%). This includes member electronic fees and all Ring fees, given the significance of the Ring for the physical market. All other ancillary fees will generally be subject to an inflationary increase of approximately 3%. The new fee schedule will go live from 1 January 2026, with the exception of client transaction fees, which will apply from 1 March 2026, allowing members time to implement any process changes required specifically in relation to client order types. In the interim period, from 1 January to 28 February 2026, the LME will apply inflationary increases to the existing client transaction fees.

Sharjah Islamic Bank’s second Sukuk listing of 2025 received strong demand from regional and international investors reflecting confidence in Dubai’s Islamic capital markets Total outstanding value of Sukuk listed on Nasdaq Dubai rises to USD 103 billion  Nasdaq Dubai has welcomed the listing of a USD 500 million Sukuk by Sharjah Islamic Bank (SIB), issued under its USD 3 billion Trust Certificate Issuance Programme. The five-year Sukuk, maturing in November 2030, carries a profit rate of 4.6%.

To commemorate the listing, HE. Ahmed Saad, Deputy CEO of Sharjah Islamic Bank rang the market-opening bell at Nasdaq Dubai in the presence of Hamed Ali, CEO of Nasdaq Dubai and Dubai Financial Market (DFM). HE. Ahmed Saad, Deputy CEO of Sharjah Islamic Bank, said: "The successful listing of our USD 500 million Sukuk reflects the continued confidence that regional and global investors place in Sharjah Islamic Bank’s strategy, financial strength, and prudent growth model. We remain committed to deepening our engagement with international capital markets and diversifying our funding sources in alignment with our long-term vision. This listing is an important milestone that supports our objective of sustaining strong liquidity and financing capabilities to serve our customers and community."  Hamed Ali, CEO of Nasdaq Dubai and DFM, said: “Sharjah Islamic Bank’s new Sukuk listing reflects the continued confidence that regional issuers place in Dubai’s capital markets. Each listing contributes to the depth and credibility of the UAE’s financial infrastructure, providing efficient access to a broad international investor base. Nasdaq Dubai remains committed to supporting this momentum and strengthening the UAE’s role as a global hub for Islamic finance.” The total outstanding value of Sukuk listed on Nasdaq Dubai has reached USD 103 billion, reaffirming its position among the world’s largest venues for Islamic fixed-income securities. The total outstanding value of debt listings on Nasdaq Dubai now exceeds USD 144 billion, underscoring Dubai’s role as a leading centre for capital raising and cross-border investment flows.

The Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) today announced the renewal of the Bilateral Local Currency Swap Arrangement with the Bank of Japan (BOJ) for another three years.2  Under the arrangement, the two central banks can exchange local currencies with each other of up to SGD 15 billion or JPY 1.1 trillion.

The BC Securities Commission (BCSC) is alleging that a B.C. corporation and two individuals contravened the Securities Act because of their role in an alleged $16 million fraud involving more than 100 victims. Elixir Technology Inc. (previously known as Elixir Income Inc.) represented itself as a profitable financial technology company that was developing proprietary software and generating revenue by leasing the software and using it to trade securities. Former B.C. resident William Peter McNarland was Elixir’s founding director, and B.C. resident Mang Hei Jaclyn Wu was also a director. Between July 2020 and October 2022, Elixir raised approximately CA$14.6 million and US$1 million from 113 investors, claiming that most of its securities would provide interest and monthly dividends between 6 and 11.5 per cent annually. It allegedly did so despite lacking a viable software leasing business and while facing severe financial distress without telling investors about its poor financial condition. During the first quarter of 2020, Elixir suffered catastrophic trading losses, and during the first half of that year, its revenue was negative $5.5 million as a result of losses on its investments. It did not generate enough revenue to pay distributions to investors and it owed nearly twice as much to investors as it had in assets. It subsequently deferred all redemptions to investors in November 2022, and deferred all distributions effective December 2022. By failing to disclose its true financial condition to investors, the BCSC alleges that Elixir perpetrated a fraud. McNarland controlled Elixir, and allegedly authorized, permitted or acquiesced in its fraud. He now lives in Alberta and had been previously registered in B.C. and Alberta to work in the investment industry, though not during the time that the alleged fraud took place. Wu, who is registered in both B.C. and Ontario as a dealing representative for exempt market securities and is also licensed with the Insurance Council of BC, recommended Elixir’s securities and referred investors to Elixir and received commissions for the referrals. She allegedly contributed to the fraud by raising money for Elixir when she knew about Elixir’s poor financial condition but failed to disclose it to investors. The BCSC further alleges that 13 investors who purchased $2.6 million of Elixir’s securities between February 2020 and October 2022 did not qualify for any exemption from the requirement for a prospectus – a formal document providing details of an investment. Since Elixir did not file a prospectus, the BCSC alleges that  its distribution of securities to these investors was illegal, even if it was not fraudulent. McNarland and Wu, as directors and officers of Elixir, allegedly authorized, permitted or acquiesced in its illegal distributions. In addition, Wu allegedly made false or misleading statements during interviews with BCSC investigators in November 2024. While under oath, she testified that she was a close personal friend of three investors, which would have allowed Elixir to sell its securities to the investors under an exemption for family, friends and business associates. The BCSC alleges that her statements were untrue and she was not a friend of any of the three investors. The BCSC’s allegations have not been proven. The Commission requires the respondents or their counsel to appear at the BCSC’s offices on December 16, 2025 if they wish to be heard before a hearing is scheduled.
