SEC Sri Lanka Directive on Restrictions for Extending Warrant Trading Periods

The Securities and Exchange Commission of Sri Lanka issued a directive prohibiting the secondary market trading of warrants after their initial cut-off date. This measure prevents listed companies from extending warrant terms to transfer risk to investors after the risk event has occurred. The Colombo Stock Exchange and all listed companies are required to enforce this prohibition effective immediately.
