Shanghai moves on delisting steps

THE Shanghai Stock Exchange unveiled new delisting procedure policies, which will take effect in 2013, the local bourse said yesterday.

The new policies aimed to simplify and standardize delisting procedures and protect the interests of investors, the exchange said in a statement on its website yesterday.

Under the new policies, the shares of companies being delisted will be limited to a 5-percent daily fluctuation, unlike the limit of 1-2 percent in previous drafts.

Shares of firms being relisted under the new policies will be allowed to jump or fall by a maximum 10 percent on the first trading day, unlike the no-limit rule currently.

"The revised and detailed delisting procedure will protect investors and make the market healthy," the exchange said.

Under the listing rules, listed firms which are unprofitable for two straight years will be marked "under special treatment," or "ST shares," and those operating at losses for three straight years will be marked "*ST shares."
