MFA issued the following statement in response to Parliament passing the UK Short Selling Regulations 2024:
“The alternative investment industry applauds the passage of the changes to the short selling regulations in Parliament. Short selling improves market efficiency, liquidity, and price discovery. It also helps to combat corporate waste, fraud, and abuse.

— Rob Hailey, MFA Head of EMEA Government Affairs.
