Taiwan’s financial regulator has removed stock short-selling restrictions that were put in place to curb market declines during a turbulent period in the final quarter of 2022.

Taiwan’s Financial Supervisory Commission in October banned shorting stocks at a price lower than the previous close if shares drop more than 3.5% the day before. The ban will be lifted immediately, the FSC said in a statement on Thursday.
