The Financial Services Commission announced that revised Enforcement Decree provisions establishing new non-monetary sanctions against unfair trading and illegal short sales will take effect on April 23, 2025. The updated regulations empower the FSC to impose transaction bans of up to five years, restrict rule-breakers from serving as executives at listed and financial companies, and freeze suspected accounts for up to one year. These measures aim to enhance investor protection and deter recidivism by aligning domestic capital market enforcement with international standards.
