Promenade EarndWhat is changing in the rules, and what it means for you
Short, practical notes on regulation affecting retail investors in Ireland — no legal jargon, no hype.
How to read the notes below
Written for people starting out
Every note here assumes no background in markets. Where a term is unavoidable it is explained the first time it appears, and where a rule differs by country that is stated plainly rather than glossed over.
What you will not find
No price predictions and no trade calls. Anything framed as a guaranteed return is the clearest warning sign in this industry, and we will not add to it.
How often it is updated
Notes are revisited whenever the underlying rules change — a new regulation, a new reporting requirement, a change in how deposits are handled. The date on each note reflects when it was last checked, not when it was first written.
