Hong Kong Exchange Launches Settlement Acceleration Platform HKEX Synapse for Northbound Stock Connect Participants on 9th October 2023, Provides International Investors Connecting to Mainland China Stock Markets with Better Post-Trade Operations, Real-Time Data & Reduced Settlement Risks
5th October 2023 | Hong Kong
The Hong Kong Exchange (HKEX) will be launching settlement acceleration platform HKEX Synapse for Northbound Stock Connect participants on 9th October 2023, providing international investors connecting to Mainland China stock markets with better post-trade operations, real-time data & reduced settlement risks. HKEX: “Synapse is the latest enhancement to Stock Connect, the unique mutual market access programme that connects Mainland Chinese markets with those in Hong Kong. Synapse will launch on 9 October 2023, and will deploy DAML smart contracts to standardise and streamline post-trade workflows, enhancing operational efficiencies and transparency whilst reducing settlement risks. Synapse is part of HKEX’s ongoing commitment to the development of Stock Connect, the efficient, accessible and cost-effective channel for investors participating in capital markets in Mainland China and Hong Kong. Other recent enhancements to Stock Connect include the addition of up to 10 Stock Connect trading days per year, as well as the inclusion of more than 1,000 additional stocks listed in Mainland China and made accessible to international investors via Northbound Stock Connect. HKEX Synapse eliminates sequential processes, offering real-time visibility and insights into the settlement process for all market participants. Asset managers, brokers, custodians and clearing participants will benefit from real-time data synchronisation and improved scalability, helping them to handle the growing volume of trades through Northbound Stock Connect. Average daily turnover of Northbound Stock Connect totalled RMB109.3 billion in the first half of 2023, up 5 per cent from a year earlier, and a 50 per cent increase from 2020 levels. Available as an optional service, HKEX Synapse will support institutional investors participating in Northbound Stock Connect to better manage their post-trade operations across different time zones, in particular with regard to adhering to the Mainland securities market’s T+0 settlement cycle.” HKEX Synapse are available on the designated Synapse webpage on the HKEX website.

Hong Kong Exchange Launches Settlement Acceleration Platform HKEX Synapse for Northbound Stock Connect Participants on 9th October 2023

4th October 2023 – Hong Kong Exchanges and Clearing Limited (HKEX) is today (Wednesday) pleased to announce the launch of HKEX Synapse, a new integrated settlement acceleration platform that utilises the latest technology to deliver greater market efficiency and transparency. Synapse is the latest enhancement to Stock Connect, the unique mutual market access programme that connects Mainland Chinese markets with those in Hong Kong. Synapse will launch on 9 October 2023, and will deploy DAML smart contracts to standardise and streamline post-trade workflows, enhancing operational efficiencies and transparency whilst reducing settlement risks.
Synapse is part of HKEX’s ongoing commitment to the development of Stock Connect, the efficient, accessible and cost-effective channel for investors participating in capital markets in Mainland China and Hong Kong. Other recent enhancements to Stock Connect include the addition of up to 10 Stock Connect trading days per year, as well as the inclusion of more than 1,000 additional stocks listed in Mainland China and made accessible to international investors via Northbound Stock Connect. HKEX Synapse eliminates sequential processes, offering real-time visibility and insights into the settlement process for all market participants. Asset managers, brokers, custodians and clearing participants will benefit from real-time data synchronisation and improved scalability, helping them to handle the growing volume of trades through Northbound Stock Connect. Average daily turnover of Northbound Stock Connect totalled RMB109.3 billion in the first half of 2023, up 5 per cent from a year earlier, and a 50 per cent increase from 2020 levels.
Available as an optional service, HKEX Synapse will support institutional investors participating in Northbound Stock Connect to better manage their post-trade operations across different time zones, in particular with regard to adhering to the Mainland securities market’s T+0 settlement cycle. HKEX Synapse will be linked with The Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation (DTCC) through its Institutional Trade Processing (ITP) service. With this integration, global investors and HKEX participants will benefit from the central matching of cross-border transactions using DTCC’s CTM service, which will automatically generate and send settlement instructions to the Synapse platform, streamlining the trade confirmation and settlement notification process. Other details of HKEX Synapse are available on the designated Synapse webpage on the HKEX website.
