Q & A On Shanghai-London Stock Connect Mechanism

Date 07/09/2018

Q1: What is Shanghai-London Stock Connect Mechanism?

A: As a connectivity mechanism between the Shanghai Stock Exchange (SSE) and the London Stock Exchange (LSE), Shanghai-London Stock Connect refers to the arrangement that the eligible companies listed in the two countries issue the depositary receipts (DRs) and list and trade them on the other side's market according to the laws and regulations for the other side's market. At the same time, through the cross-border conversion mechanism between depositary receipts and underlying securities, the connectivity of the two markets will be realized.

Shanghai-London Stock Connect includes two business directions, eastbound and westbound. The eastbound business means that the LSE-listed companies list the Chinese depositary receipts (CDRs) on the SSE. In the westbound business, the A-share companies on the SSE list the global depositary receipts (GDRs) on the LSE.
