EU watchdog says new short-selling rules not harmful

September 20, 2013--Banning bets on falling share prices in the European Union has not damaged prices or ramped up volatility on stock markets, the bloc's securities regulator said on Friday, largely refuting market players' concerns.

ESMA TRV: market conditions improve, as systemic risks persist

September 20, 2013-The European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA) published today its Trends, Risks, Vulnerabilities (TRV) Report (Ref. 2013/1138) and a Risk Dashboard for the second quarter of 2013.

The TRV examines the performance of securities markets in the first half of 2013, assessing both trends and risks in order to develop a comprehensive picture of systemic and macro-prudential risks in the EU, to assist both national and EU bodies in their risk assessments. ESMA's TRV contributes to promoting financial stability and enhancing consumer protection by regularly looking into cross-border and cross-sector trends, risks and vulnerabilities, both at the wholesale and retail level.

The TRV finds that EU securities markets and investment conditions in the EU have improved for a second quarter in a row since the 4th quarter of 2012, although systemic risk persisted at medium to high levels. Amongst other risk factors, uncertainty remained high due to concerns over funding sources, low interest rates and recent market fluctuations, resulting in increased market risk, while liquidity, credit and contagion risk continue to be significant.
