Summary/Abstract: The article discusses the issue of the influence of public interest on the regulation of the financial market. The basic challenges for regulators associated with the dynamic development of this market are presented. Anew regulatory paradigm aimed at introducing and implementing values necessary for the proper functioning of the financial market is discussed. The need to protect non-professional participants of this market is emphasized in particular. A new approach to the consumer model is taken into account where the rational consumer has become more susceptible to emotions and irrational behaviors. The special role of financial market stability is highlighted, which has become a kind of public good that is subject to special protection. The way in which public interest materializes in financial market regulations, not only in statutory law but also in soft law norms, is also discussed.
