ETN Listing Guidebook [Regarding Usage] ・This "ETN New Listing Guidebook" explains an outline of listing examination, timely disclosure, and delisting criteria and procedures when listing an ETN (Exchange Traded Note) issued by a corporation/vehicle which uses a Japanese Depositary Receipt (JDR) scheme on Tokyo Stock Exchange, Inc. * Please refer to the Securities Listing Regulations, Section 4, Chapter 4 "ETNs (Rule 941 – Rule 956)", etc. for details regarding ETN listing rules, listing examination criteria, timely disclosure criteriadelisting criteria, etc. ・This guidebook provides an outline of the rules when applying for listing of a JDR which has an ETN as a trust asset (beneficiary certificate). The term "ETN-JDR" generally refers to such JDRs in this guidebook, whereas "ETN" generally refers to the ETNs which are trust assets to such JDRs. ・The contents of trust agreements shown in this guidebook are examples, and do not indicate that trust agreements with differing contents will be deemed to not meet the listing examination criteria. ・The trust agreement contents contained in this guidebook were determined through discussions and mutual understanding between trust banks, financial instruments business operators (securities companies), securities depository centers, and other experts. Therefore, trust agreements with differing contents may require additional explanation during listing examination or adjustment with related parties in advance. ・Depending on the legal system and industry practices in the ETN's home country (the country or region of the ETN's creation or which contains the foreign financial instruments exchange on which the ETN is listed or continuously traded), the method of composition or contents of disclosure may differ. As a result, the legal system and industry practices of the home country will be considered when applying listing regulations, such as listing examination criteria. *Because listing rules differ for the listing of JDRs which have a "foreign stock" or a "foreign ETF" as a trust asset (beneficiary certificate), please consult with TSE separately. 1 ETN Listing Guidebook (Ver.10) Copyright ©2021 Tokyo Stock Exchange, Inc.

Lehmann and David M. Modest Common sense and conventional economic reasoning suggest that liquid sec- ondary markets facilitate lower-cost capital formation than would otherwise occur. Broad common sense does not, however, provide a reliable guide to the specific market mechanisms-the nitty-gritty details of market microstruc- ture-that would produce the most desirable economic outcomes. The demand for and supply of liquidity devolves from the willingness, in- deed the demand, of public investors to trade. However, their demands are seldom coordinated except by particular trading mechanisms, causing transient fluctuations in the demand for liquidity services and resulting in the fragmenta- tion of order flow over time. In most organized secondary markets, designated market makers like dealers and specialists serve as intermediaries between buyers and sellers who provide liquidity over short time intervals as part of their provision of intermediation services. Liquidity may ultimately be pro- vided by the willingness of investors to trade with one another, but designated market makers typically bridge temporal gaps in investor demands in most markets.'

BEBR FACULTY WORKING PAPER NO. 89-1573 College of Commerce and Business Administration University of Illinois at Urbana- Champaign May 1989 Price and Volume in the Tokyo Stock Exchange An Exploratory Study Y. K. Tse, Visiting Scholar Department of Economics This paper was written when I was visiting the University of Illinois at Urbana- Champaign. I thank Josef Lakonishok for stimulation and inspiration Abstract: In this paper, we consider the unconditional distributions of market return and trading volume in the Tokyo Stock Exchange. We also examine the relationship between price changes and trading volumes. The problems considered are directed by findings in the U.S. market, with a view to ascertain similarities and differences. Daily market returns exhibit intra-week periodicity. Returns over daily, weekly and monthly intervals are negativelv skewed and leptokurtLc. While daily returns are slightly positively autocorre- lated, the autocorrelations for weekly and monthly returns are statistically insignificant. There is evidence against the stable Paretian hypothesis for market returns; and the empirical results are in support of market returns following a low order mixture of normal distribution. Trading volume is highly positively autocorrelated. This suggests that trading volume is not a good proxy for information.

  • 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.

  • Securities Market Structure and Regulation
    INTRODUCTION In beginning this symposium on the structure and regulation of the securities markets, I’m sure we will all keep in mind George Santayana’s caution that: “Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.”1 Although enormous changes have taken place over the past few decades, we keep hearing echoes of the past. When the London Stock Exchange (LSE) switched from floor-based to electronic trading exactly twenty years ago, it decided that the transformation might be too traumatic for its members, so it adopted a hybrid market—an electronic market combined with traditional floor trading. The hybrid market lasted just over four months, at which time the LSE closed its floor for trading in equities. Will the New York Stock Exchange’s experience with its new hybrid market be the same or different? The Consolidated Limited Order Book (CLOB), which I expect will be discussed today, was first proposed to the SEC thirty years ago by Professor Peake, one of today’s speakers, in 1976, a year after Congress told the SEC to create a national market system. The CLOB, which would execute investors’ orders electronically under a rule of time and price priority, seemed to him the best way to assure best execution of investors’ orders throughout the national market system. In 1978, the SEC told the exchanges to create a CLOB. A year later the Commission had second thoughts: it feared that a CLOB would lead to the elimination of exchange trading floors by inexorably forcing all trading into a fully automated trading system.

  • An Institutional Comparison Between European and Japanese Junior Stock Markets
    INNOVATION-FUELLED, SUSTAINABLE, INCLUSIVE GROWTH Working Paper How do financial markets adapt? An institutional comparison between European and Japanese Junior stock markets Caroline Granier Sant’Anna School of Advanced Studies Valérie Revest Université Lyon 2, Triangle, Sant’Anna School of Advanced Studies Alessandro Sapio Parthenope University of Naples, Sant’Anna School of Advanced Studies 11/2017 May This project has received funding from the European Union Horizon 2020 Research and Innovation action under grant agreement No 649186 How do financial markets adapt? An institutional comparison between European and Japanese Junior stock markets Caroline Granier (Sant’Anna School of Advanced Studies, Pisa) Valérie Revest (Université Lyon 2, Triangle & Sant’Anna School of Advanced Studies, Pisa) Alessandro Sapio (Parthenope University of Naples & Sant’Anna School of Advanced Studies, Pisa) ABSTRACT Since the last decade, new Junior stock markets or second-tier stock markets have emerged in various countries, often influenced by the Alternative Investment Market, created by the London Stock Echange in 1995, and considered by numerous economic and political actors as a reference. Junior Markets are characterised by simplified listing processes and customised information standards. The creation of junior stock market segments can be seen as an instance of financialisation and of the spread of market-led financial architectures to economies traditionally characterised by credit-based financial systems, according to the evolutionary taxonomy outlined by Dosi (1990). This begs the question as to whether we are witnessing an increasing convergence towards financial systems that are typical of the Anglo-Saxon world. With these questions in mind, in this paper we perform an institutional comparison of junior stocks markets located in countries characterised by different varieties of capitalism : AIM London, AIM Italy, Alternext, Entry Standard, OMX First North, Mothers, Tokyo AIM, JASDAQ.

  • How Fast Do Tokyo and New York Stock Exchanges Respond to Each Other?: an Analysis with High-Frequency Data
    Discussion Paper No.10 How Fast Do Tokyo and New York Stock Exchanges Respond to Each Other?: An Analysis with High-Frequency Data Yoshiro Tsutsui and Kenjiro Hirayama October 2008 GCOE Secretariat Graduate School of Economics OSAKA UNIVERSITY 1-7 Machikaneyama, Toyonaka, Osaka, 560-0043, Japan How Fast Do Tokyo and New York Stock Exchanges Respond * to Each Other?: An Analysis with High-Frequency Data Yoshiro Tsutsui Osaka University Kenjiro Hirayama Kwansei Gakuin University Abstract This paper uses one-minute returns on the TOPIX and S&P500 to examine the efficiency of the Tokyo and New York Stock Exchanges. Our major finding is that Tokyo completes reactions to New York within six minutes, but New York reacts within fourteen minutes. Dividing the sample period into three subperiods, we found that the response time has shortened and the magnitude of reaction has become larger over the period in both markets. The magnitude of response in New York to a fall in Tokyo is roughly double that of a rise.
