Amendment 17 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 5
(5) Apart from the information in relation to financial services, capital markets and sustainability that has to be made public under Union law, investors, market participants, advisors and the public at large may have an interest in obtaining other information that an entity wants to make accessible. Small and medium-sized enterprises may want to make more information publicly accessible in order to become more visible to potential investors and thereby increase funding and diversify funding opportunities. Also, market participants may want to provide more information than that required by law or to make public the information required by national law but not available at Union level in order to complement the information provided to the public at the Union level. Any entity should therefore be allowed to make financial, sustainability- related and other relevant information accessible on ESAP. Pursuant to the principle of data minimisation, entities should ensure that no personal data are included, except where those data cannot be anonymised and constitute a necessary element of the information about their economic activities, including when the name of the entity coincides with the name of the owner. Where such information contains personal data, the entities should ensure that they can rely for such disclosure on one of the lawful grounds of processing laid down in Article 6 of Regulation (EU) 2016/679 of the European Parliament and of the Council26 . _________________ 26 Regulation (EU) 2016/679 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 27 April 2016 on the protection of natural persons with regard to the processing of personal data and on the free movement of such data, and repealing Directive 95/46/EC (General Data Protection Regulation) (OJ L 119, 4.5.2016, p. 1).
