The Australian Securities and Investments
Commission (ASIC) and the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX) have
issued three statements to clarify and reinforce existing
obligations in relation to share lending and short selling.
These statements follow the joint statement
issued by the organisations last week on finance arrangements and
margin loans involving listed companies.
The three further statements are:
- ASIC reminds market participants about stock lending disclosure obligations
- ASX on short selling (pdf)
- ASIC on false and misleading rumours
