Abstract: The purpose of the paper is to take into discussion the benefits, as well as the negative effectsthat regulation might trigger for the development of the stock markets, focusing on the case ofshort-sale transactions. The paper outlines the regulatory changes that were made in this respectfor the European Union countries in the aftermath of the 2007-08 financial crisis. Alongsidereviewing the most significant empirical papers which have approached the connection betweenbanning or short-selling disclosure requirements and stock market quality, the authors investigatewhether the current regulation brings more benefits than costs to the European financial markets.
