  • B3 Transfers Equities to Its Multi-Asset Clearing Platform
    Press release 29 August 2017 B3 transfers equities to its multi-asset clearing platform Cinnober’s real-time clearing solution now handles post trading process for both the equities and the derivatives markets in Brazil • BRL 21 billion of collateral returned to the market (approx. USD 6,4 billion) • Phase two completed of major Post-Trade Integration Project going from two clearinghouses to one for equities and derivatives • More efficient risk management by analyzing the risk on entire portfolios B3 (the Brazilian exchange and clearinghouse) successfully launched on Monday the equities, corporate bonds, and equities lending markets on its new multi-asset clearing platform. The clearing solution is delivered by Cinnober, built on its TRADExpress RealTime Clearing system. The migration of the equities clearinghouse was the target for phase two of B3’s Post-Trade Integration Project that will consolidate B3’s originally four clearinghouses into one integrated entity (managing equities, derivatives, government and corporate debt securities and FX). Derivatives and OTC products were the first to launch on the new platform in phase one. With the new integrated clearinghouse, B3 manages risk more efficiently. By analyzing the risk on entire portfolios, the clearinghouse can compensate if an investor has opposite positions in the same underlying asset across product groups and markets. When financial and commodity derivatives, along with OTC products, migrated to the new clearinghouse in phase one, the total systemic benefit in terms of margin release amounted to around BRL 20 billion. The estimated effect from Monday’s launch of phase two is BRL 21 billion of collateral that was returned to the market with complete preservation of the clearinghouse’s safety system.

  • The Australian Stock Market Development: Prospects and Challenges
    Risk governance & control: financial markets & institutions / Volume 3, Issue 2, 2013 THE AUSTRALIAN STOCK MARKET DEVELOPMENT: PROSPECTS AND CHALLENGES Sheilla Nyasha*, NM Odhiambo** Abstract This paper highlights the origin and development of the Australian stock market. The country has three major stock exchanges, namely: the Australian Securities Exchange Group, the National Stock Exchange of Australia, and the Asia-Pacific Stock Exchange. These stock exchanges were born out of a string of stock exchanges that merged over time. Stock-market reforms have been implemented since the period of deregulation, during the 1980s; and the Exchanges responded largely positively to these reforms. As a result of the reforms, the Australian stock market has developed in terms of the number of listed companies, the market capitalisation, the total value of stocks traded, and the turnover ratio. Although the stock market in Australia has developed remarkably over the years, and was spared by the global financial crisis of the late 2000s, it still faces some challenges. These include the increased economic uncertainty overseas, the downtrend in global financial markets, and the restrained consumer confidence in Australia.

Liquidity enables investors and issuers to meet their requirements in capital markets, be it an investment, financing, or hedging, as well as reducing investment costs and the cost of capital. Through this, liquidity has a lasting and positive impact on economies. While liquidity across many products remains high in developed markets, many emerging markets suffer from significantly low levels of trading venue liquidity, effectively placing a constraint on economic and market development. We believe that exchanges, regulators, and capital market participants can take action to grow liquidity, improve the efficiency of trading, and better service issuers and investors in their markets. The indirect benefits to emerging market economies could be significant.
