China CSRC Solicits Comments on Draft Trading Server Colocation Rules

  On April 21, 2023, the China Securities Regulatory Commission (“CSRC”) issued the  Administrative Provisions on Trading Server Colocation for the Securities and Futures Markets (Consultation Paper)  (the “Administrative Provisions”). The Administrative Provisions fill a legal gap with respect to securities and futures trading server colocation. It has been common market practice for securities or futures companies to lease cabinets in an exchange or its subsidiary’ data center and sublease it to customers to host their servers, although neither the CSRC nor exchanges have formulated specific regulatory rules on server colocation. The Administrative Provisions are the only administrative departmental rules that directly regulate colocation activities.

INE:Crude Oil Futures Trade at Settlement (TAS) Order Q&A

  1.       What is TAS? TAS, short for Trade at Settlement, is an order type that allows a trader to buy or sell an eligible futures contract during specified trading hours at the current day’s settlement price or a certain number of ticks of the outright above or below that price. 2.       Why does INE launch TAS orders? TAS order aims to provide an efficient and effective risk management tool in the market which can lower traders’ risk management costs, so as to enhance the proportion of brick-and-mortar enterprise investors and the crude oil price influence. For brick-and-mortar enterprises, the futures settlement price is often used as the benchmark price in spot trading. These enterprises used to place orders frequently to simulate the settlement price, which is difficult to execute as well as inefficient for hedging. TAS orders enable investors to trade at or near the settlement price during specified trading hours, which will greatly reduce the uncertainty
