港交所(00388.HK)料最快2022年首季推Synapse平台 冀加快结算、降低门槛等
港交所(00388.HK)交易後业务主管苏盈盈在线上记者会上指,现时沪深港通北向交易面对结算挑战,包括是结算窗口紧迫问题,由於沪深港通结算采用T+0,但香港和国际市场多数采用T+2结算流程,参与者往往需要特别就沪深港通自行制定解决方案以配合结算需要。
她续指现时参与者亦面对营运风险,因为各种各样的专设解决方案不少涉及人手处理,增加了处理工作的负荷和营运风险,此外参与者由於不能实时浏览结算状态,面对特殊情况需要特别处理时,可使用的时间不多。
她指出港交所宣布将推交易结算加速平台HKEX Synapse,当中使用了DAML的智能合约技术,配合API及一般国际投资者都有使用的SWIFT,相信可增加流程的透明度,令不同的参与者都能实时、一次过知道所需讯息,并可透过Synapse下交易後指令。
她期望推出平台後可令参与门槛降低,方便国际投资者进行交易,而平台同时可为投资者争取时间,提供高效及安全的服务,由於T+0下投资者面对时间紧迫的挑战,故後场亦要更多人手满足紧迫的时间,故相信如有Synapse对时间及人手都有帮助。
她指出Synapse平台无使用到分布式分类帐技术(DLT),主要因为投资者较想要DAML方面的技术,估计现时的方案已可满足投资者在交易後的需要,她又认为区块链对交易所亦是新尝试,如日後有项目可用得着DLT技术亦会考虑。
她表示Synapse暂时主要针对沪深港通北向交易,料15个月後推出,最快2022年第一季可以使用,交易所会在明年首季左右开始不同测试。至於平台会否拓展至港股市场,她指出现时港股属T+2故有足够时间,将来则要考虑交易後场及交易所的三年计划等。
