Aso Deputy Prime Minister and Finance Minister Unfair Share Trading Policy to Deal Strictly March 24 11:47
As stock prices have been volatile due to the spread of the new coronavirus, Deputy Prime Minister Aso and the Finance Minister have strengthened market surveillance and strictly dealt with fraudulent transactions. I indicated a policy to do it.
Aso Deputy Prime Minister and Finance Minister told reporters after the Cabinet meeting on the morning of April 24 that the current financial markets are "stabilized in global markets as the spread of the new coronavirus spreads." I said.
At the end of the fiscal year, the FSA hopes to raise the level of caution and monitor market trends so that market volatility will not be amplified or fraudulent. He strengthened market surveillance and stated that he would strictly address fraudulent transactions.
The Financial Services Agency, in cooperation with the Securities and Exchange Surveillance Commission and the respective stock exchanges, has tightened regulations on "short selling" of stocks that have been pointed out as contributing to market turmoil when stock prices have plummeted. I decided to apply.
In the future, if there is a need for additional measures from the viewpoint of rapid market fluctuations and the fairness of transactions, the company will respond promptly.
