New rule limits trading by idle brokerages
HA NOI — The State Securities Commission on Tuesday announced a new regulation for securities companies that continued trading but no longer operated brokerage services, limiting them to only one trading account at other brokers.
The commission said: "Securities companies that engage in trading by themselves are allowed to open only one account and shall not open any self-trading accounts at other companies. In case securities firms withdraw their brokerage services, they are permitted to open one account at another securities company to conduct transactions for themselves.-VNS
