Investment firms should put in place and maintain appropriate internal alert policies and procedures for staff to report potential or actual breaches of Regulation (EU) No 2033/2019 and national provisions transposing Directive (EU) 2019/2034 through a specific, independent and autonomous channel. It should not be necessary for reporting staff to have evidence of a breach; however, they should have a sufficient level of certainty that provides sufficient reason to launch an investigation. Investment firms should also implement appropriate processes and procedures that ensure that they comply with their obligations under the national implementation of Directive (EU) 2019/1937 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 23 October 2019 on the protection of persons who report breaches of Union law.
