Overseas Investment Surge: Taiwan Brokers Expand US Stock Trading Hours

Finance · Investment Banks/Brokers · economic_daily · 2026-08-21

Taiwanese investors continue to pour money into overseas markets, with cumulative brokerage trading volume reaching 11.38 trillion TWD through July.

What Happened

Robust Investment Demand: Despite global market volatility in July, demand for overseas investment via sub-brokerage accounts remains strong, with year-to-date volume surpassing last year's total.

Extended Trading Hours: Regulators have approved the extension of US stock sub-brokerage trading hours to 16 hours, including pre-market sessions, to provide investors with greater flexibility.

Operational Upgrades: Local brokers are upgrading their systems to accommodate these changes, though post-market trading remains limited due to clearing and staffing constraints.

Risk Management: Market experts advise investors to exercise caution during pre-market sessions due to lower liquidity and wider spreads, recommending the use of limit orders to manage costs.
