On 15 October 2023, the FSS released its intentions to strengthen short selling measures. This follows a review conducted by the FSS into short selling activity.
- Expand short selling investigations into major global IBs.
- Closely cooperate with overseas supervisory authorities in order to redress illegal short selling by overseas financial investment companies.
- Strengthen inspections on domestic securities firms that receive orders from global IBs, including the process of consignment of short selling orders, whether illegal short selling orders can be recognised and taking strict measures if any violations are found.
