The Taipei Exchange will introduce new volatility safeguards for emerging stocks starting February 22, including 30-minute halts for 30% price swings.
What Happened
New Regulations: The Taipei Exchange (TPEx) has announced new trading rules for the emerging stock market, set to take effect on February 22, aimed at curbing excessive volatility and protecting investors.
Volatility Safeguards: Under the new policy, stocks experiencing a 30% price swing from the previous day's average will trigger a 30-minute trading halt, while a 50% swing will result in a suspension for the remainder of the session.
Enhanced Disclosure: Companies triggering these halts must disclose their financial and operational status before the next trading day, while market makers face stricter requirements for quote management and inventory replenishment.
Market Integrity: The exchange is also extending price control mechanisms to the first five days of a stock's listing, ensuring that investor orders remain within reasonable bounds to maintain orderly market operations.
