A majority of MPs has called on the government to follow Germany and introduce a ban on the form of speculative share trading known as ‘naked short selling’.
Naked short selling is the practice of selling shares without owning them, borrowing them, or ensuring that they can be borrowed in the future.
Earlier this week, the Dutch financial services regulator AFM said it did not support a ban. Nor does acting finance minister Jan Kees de Jager.
