Hong Kong Exchanges and Clearing Limited 0388 HK Company Profile & Facts

Taken together, the Commission believes that the terms of the agreement to protect OCC and its counterparties, combined with the reduced likelihood of OCC's failure to manage a default, would in fact promote the safety and soundness of the U.S. markets. Under OCC's existing Non-Bank Liquidity Facility program, OCC maintains a series of arrangements to access cash in exchange for Government securities (“Eligible Securities”) deposited by Clearing Members in respect of their Clearing Fund requirements to meet OCC's settlement obligations. Currently, the aggregate amount OCC may seek through the Non-Bank Liquidity Facility program is limited to $1 billion. Through this Advance Notice, OCC is proposing to remove the $1 billion funding limit and increase the capacity of its Non-Bank Liquidity Facility to an amount to be determined by OCC's Board from time to time, based on OCC's liquidity needs at the time and a number of other factors. Instead of retaining the $1 billion funding limit for the Non-Bank Liquidity Facility program, OCC proposes to establish a target across all external liquidity resources of at least $3 billion, which is the current aggregate amount of external liquidity. OCC is not, as part of this Advance Notice, requiring its members or other market participants to provide additional or different collateral to OCC.

The Commission believes that the proposed changes are consistent with promoting robust risk management, in particular the management of liquidity risk presented to OCC. As a central counterparty and a SIFMU, it is imperative that OCC have adequate resources to be able to satisfy liquidity needs arising from its settlement obligations, including in the event of a Clearing Member default. The Commission believes that approving these changes would give OCC greater flexibility to obtain additional liquidity resources in the form of commitments under the Non-Bank Liquidity Facility. Therefore, the Commission believes that the Advance Notice could increase OCC's access to liquidity resources, which in turn would strengthen OCC's overall ability to manage its liquidity risk exposures. As such, the Commission believes that the proposal would promote robust liquidity risk management at OCC consistent with Section 805 of the Clearing Supervision Act.

Prior to the completion of the merger with HKFE in March 2000, the unified stock exchange had 570 participant organisations.
