Gelukkig hoeven we ons over dat scenario geen zorgen te maken, volgens de AFM:
Calculation of a net short position
To calculate whether a natural person or legal person has a net short position, the short positions and long positions of such person must first be examined. This examination must take into account all forms of economic interests that this person has in the issued share capital of an enterprise or the sovereign debt of a Member State or of the EU. This can include the economic interest obtained by the use of derivatives, such as options, futures, contracts for differences and spread bets, but also by the use of indices, baskets of securities, or index funds. The position that remains after any long position has been deducted from any short position is classified as a net short position under the Short Sell Regulation.
Apart from the disclosure of significant net short positions pursuant to the Short Sell Regulation, significant gross short positions (equal to or exceeding 3% of the issued share capital of a listed company) shall have to be notified to the AFM pursuant to articles 5:38 and 5:39 of the Dutch Financial Supervision Act.
The gross short position is the short position which is available when the long positions have not been deducted from the short positions.
