Empirically, we evaluate our model\u2019s predictions by exploiting the introduction of short-sales restrictions in some but not all European countries during the COVID-19 pandemic, while measuring the share of informed stockholders with institutional ownership. Consistent with our model, bans were detrimental to market liquidity and failed to support average returns, but were effective in limiting large price drawdowns in countries that implemented short-selling bans, especially for stocks with low institutional ownership.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-spacer is-spacer-size-sm\"><\/div>\n\n\n<h5 class=\"has-text-align-left wp-block-unilux-blocks-heading\"        id=\"about-the-speaker\"\n    >\nAbout the speaker<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/scholar.google.co.uk\/citations?user=Q-6Y7H4AAAAJ&amp;hl=en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Robert Kosowski<\/a> Professor of Finance at Imperial College Business School, Imperial College London and a research fellow at the Centre for Economic Policy Research (CEPR).
