Quick Glance: South Korea introduces monitoring system to curb illegal stock short selling
- South Korea's financial market watchdog has developed a new monitoring mechanism to detect illegal short-selling transactions in the stock market. Institutional investors will be electronically processed and filtered through a central detection system to prevent illegal trades.

- The FSS aims to implement the new monitoring system swiftly after finalizing it, although no specific date was provided for the implementation.
