🇪🇺 EU MAR Insider Transactions — Italy + Netherlands + Spain + Belgium

EU MAR Article 19 insider-transaction feed in ONE normalized schema, straight from the National Competent Authority registers.

Pricing: $0.10 per insider transaction delivered (Pay-Per-Event), plus the standard Actor-start event ($0.005). Blocked sources and empty results are never charged.

EU MAR (Market Abuse Regulation) Article 19 requires every senior executive of a listed European issuer to disclose their personal trades in the issuer's shares within 3 business days. Each NCA publishes those disclosures on its own portal — in its own language, on its own schedule, with its own column layout. This actor scrapes four of the most-watched NCAs at once and merges them into a single dataset row schema you can stream into a backtest, an alert pipeline, or a screener.

Country	NCA	Source register	Status
🇳🇱 Netherlands	AFM	Managers' transactions MAR 19	Live — full register export plus the per-notification detail lines (instrument, ISIN, price, quantity, venue)
🇮🇹 Italy	CONSOB	Internal Dealing	Currently unavailable — the page no longer serves a transaction table
🇪🇸 Spain	CNMV	Notificaciones de Transacciones de Ejecutivos	Currently unavailable — the portal answers HTTP 403 to datacenter IPs
🇧🇪 Belgium	FSMA	Transactions by Senior Executives	Currently unavailable — HTTP 404; the FSMA no longer hosts this list

Each run reports per-NCA status. A country you select that cannot be read makes the run fail with the reason rather than returning a silent empty dataset, and nothing is charged for it. Only real, parsed transactions are billed.

France AMF is intentionally NOT included. The AMF BDIF API geo-blocks non-French IPs with HTTP 500. If you need French dirigeants declarations, use the dedicated france-amf-insider-trades actor (it ships with the right residential-proxy defaults).

💰 Pricing

Event	Price (USD)	When it is charged
Actor Start (apify-actor-start)	$0.005	Charged when the Actor starts running. Number of events charged depends on Actor memory (one event per GB, minimum one event).
Insider transaction (insider-transaction)	$0.1	Per MAR Article 19 insider transaction extracted (Italy/Netherlands/Spain/Belgium)

Pay-per-event: you pay only for what the run delivers. A run that delivers nothing bills no result events (only the actor-start event, when the actor defines one). Example: a run that delivers 100 results costs 100 × $0.1 = $10.00 plus the start fee.

🎯 Who buys this data

European long-only portfolio managers

You're running a fundamental Europe book and you want to know when the CFO of a name you own (or are about to own) sold €5M of their own stock at the same time as the company was guiding to a "strong outlook." Insider buys in the same window are an stronger data point. The AFM MAR-19 register alone covers every Dutch-listed issuer, including the Euronext Amsterdam large caps.

Activist short funds

The classic European short setup is: management pumping the story while quietly cashing out. This actor surfaces the cashing-out side automatically, with transaction_direction = "sell" and the EUR value of every disposal, normalized across four jurisdictions. Run daily; alert on dispositions over a size threshold.

ESG & governance teams

Section 27 of the EU SRD II and most major ESG screens flag executive selling clusters around critical disclosures (earnings, M&A, guidance revisions). This actor gives you the structured input to those screens without paying a Big Four data provider €40K/year for the same underlying public records.

📊 Sample output

Real row from a live run (2026-09-05):

{
  "country": "Netherlands",
  "nca": "AFM",
  "issuer_name": "MPC Energy Solutions N.V.",
  "insider_name": "Meichsner S.H.A.",
  "position": "CFO",
  "transaction_date": "2026-09-02",
  "transaction_type": "Vervreemding Verkoop",
  "transaction_direction": "sell",
  "volume": 37000.0,
  "price": 2.22,
  "currency": "NOK",
  "total_value_eur": null,
  "notification_url": "https://www.afm.nl/en/sector/registers/meldingenregisters/transacties-leidinggevenden-mar19-/details?id=...",
  "data_source": "AFM (EU MAR Article 19)"
}

Every row carries:

• country & nca — so you can pivot the dataset back to jurisdiction
• issuer_name & insider_name & position (CEO / CFO / Board member / PCA)
• transaction_date (ISO-8601, normalized from dd/mm/yyyy and similar)
• transaction_type in the source language, plus a derived transaction_direction (buy / sell / other)
• volume, price and currency as the NCA published them; total_value_eur is filled only when the trade settled in EUR (never a converted guess)
• notification_url — deep link back to the source filing for audit

🚀 Run it

From the Apify UI

1. Open the actor → Start
2. Pick a country (netherlands is live today; all walks every NCA and reports which ones answered)
3. Set days_back (default 30) and optional issuer_filter
4. Hit Start. Results land in the run's default dataset.

From Python (Apify SDK)

from apify_client import ApifyClient

client = ApifyClient("YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN")
run = client.actor("nexgendata/eu-mar-insider-transactions-tracker").call(
    run_input={
        "country": "netherlands",
        "days_back": 30,
        "transaction_direction": "sell",
        "max_transactions": 500,
    }
)

for row in client.dataset(run["defaultDatasetId"]).iterate_items():
    print(row["country"], row["issuer_name"], row["transaction_type"],
          row.get("total_value_eur"))

From cURL

curl -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/nexgendata~eu-mar-insider-transactions-tracker/runs?token=YOUR_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"country": "netherlands", "days_back": 14, "transaction_direction": "buy"}'

🧩 What it does NOT do

• No France AMF. Use the dedicated france-amf-insider-trades actor — AMF geo-blocks non-FR IPs.
• No Germany BaFin / DGAP — BaFin runs the disclosures through a separate publisher pipeline (DGAP); we may add it in a future release.
• No UK FCA / Investegate — use investegate-rns-aggregator for the LSE/AIM RNS feed.
• No Form 4-style insider derivative grants beyond what the NCAs publish — MAR Article 19 covers PDMR personal trades, not 10b5-1 plans, lock-ups, or company-side buybacks.

⚖️ Legal posture

Every record this actor returns is published by the issuer's competent NCA under EU MAR Article 19 — these are public regulatory disclosures by design. The actor reads pages exposed to anonymous browsers, uses a polite User-Agent that identifies the operator and a contact email (hello@thenextgennexus.com), and respects each portal's robots posture. We do not log in, bypass auth, or hit any non-public endpoint.
