Renewed Censure of Gov’t Role in the Stock Market

Head of the Tehran Chamber of Commerce, Industries, Mines and Agriculture Masoud Khansari on Saturday criticized the government for its intervention in the stock market.
Khansari singled out the government’s apparently unwanted interference in a meeting with Majid Eshqi, the managing director of the Securities and Exchange Organization.
“Despite the fact that the bourse is a non-government organization, it is heavily influenced by the government” Khansari was quoted as saying by the IRIB news website.
