KIEV, March 16 – The State Commission for Securities and the Stock Market (SCSSM) plans to oblige stock exchanges to suspend trading with securities if wide price fluctuations are seen, in order to lessen price volatility on stock markets.

The regulator proposes to stock exchanges to define indicators of price stability, in particular, the limiting value of the stock price for first- and second-level-listing securities, which exceeding would be a ground for obligatory suspension of trading for concrete securities or financial instruments.
