Chi-East has launched its non-displayed trading platform for securities listed in Hong Kong, Japan and Singapore. Chi-East’s initial participants, Instinet, Deutsche Bank, Morgan Stanley, Nomura and UBS, have already matched trades on the platform. The pan-Asian trading venue has also started using independent Central Counterparty Clearing (CCP) for Japanese securities, which is provided by LCH.Clearnet.
Chi-East, a joint venture between Chi-X Global and the Singapore Exchange (SGX), expanded to support 3,264 securities listed in Hong Kong, Japan and Singapore. It allows trading of all SGX-listed shares, all Hong Kong Main Board listed shares, the component stocks of the TOPIX 1000 and all listed ETFs in the three markets.
