(Reuters) – Russia’s central bank will lift a ban on short selling on June 1, Tinkoff Investments, one of Russia’s leading brokerage platforms said on Friday, citing a central bank note sent to brokerages.
The regulator ordered brokers to suspend short selling on the Russian exchange and over-the-counter markets on Feb. 24, the day Russia sent tens of thousands of troops into Ukraine.
