The scope of the paper is limited to the reporting requirements o f issuers o f shares in the part of capital market defined as “the regulated market”; the reporting requirements encapsulate here not only the continuous disclosure obligations of public corporations but also a duty to publish a prospectus in connection with an issuance of shares. The aim o f the paper was to answer two questions: (1) under which conditions can the court establish “a normal causation relationship” between a false or misleading statement in the report and the mistaken investment decision of the market participant; (2) which losses incurred by an investor result from normal consequences o f a mistaken investment decision made on the basis of a false or misleading statement.plArtykuł
