As time goes by, the securities market gradually matures and the rules are constantly improved.
The same is true for the stock delisting rules in 2023.
So, what are the rules for stock delisting in 2023?
Why are delisting rules needed?
What impact does it actually have on the market and stock investors?
Let's analyze it from multiple angles.
1. What are the rules for stock delisting?
Stock delisting is the process of removing a listed company's shares from a stock exchange.
Reasons for removal may be due to poor company performance, fraud, violation of corporate governance rules, etc.
Stock delisting rules guide stock exchanges when they can remove a stock from its listing and set out the steps to be taken during the delisting process.
2. The impact of delisting rules on the market and shareholders Delisting rules have an important impact on both the market and shareholders: First, they help maintain market order.
Listed companies must fulfill certain legal responsibilities to safeguard the public interest.
Companies' compliance with delisting rules can help prevent bad behavior in the market and maintain the healthy development of the market.
Secondly, this helps protect the interests of shareholders.
Withdrawing from the market may cause stock prices to fall and shareholders may suffer losses, but if a listed company fails to comply with regulations and results in delisting, the impact will be even worse.
Finally, delisting rules also help regulators better manage the market.
When companies fail to comply with regulations, regulators need to take action against them to protect the public interest.
Closing a company is a powerful tool to combat violations and issue warnings.
