  • Shanghai Stock Exchange: Q&A On Revision To Some Articles On Collateralized Repo Of Bonds

    Date 18/04/2017

    Q: Today (14 April), the Shanghai Stock Exchange (SSE) announced the revisions to the “SSE Trading Rules” and the “SSE Detailed Rules for Implementation of Bond Trading”. What are the amendments and the main concerns?

    A: In order to improve the management of the exchange-traded bond repo business, with the approval of the China Securities Regulatory Commission (CSRC), the SSE has made amendments to the “SSE Trading Rules” and the “SSE Detailed Rules for Implementation of Bond Trading”, and the new rules will come into force on May 22, 2017. The adjustments to the new rules mainly involve two aspects: the first is revising the interest-bearing rule for the collateralized repo, as the number of the interest-bearing days is changed from the nominal days of the repo term to the actual days of the outstanding funds, so as to eliminate the drastic volatility of the repo rates caused by the factor of holidays and weekends under the rule of the number of nominal interest-bearing days, and at the same time the number of interest-bearing days in a year is shifted from 360 days to 365 days; the second is modifying the calculation method of the closing price for collateralized repo, as it is altered from the volume weighted average price of all transactions in one minute before the last transaction on the very day to that in one hour, in a bid to improve the stability of the closing prices of repos.

  • Monetary Policy Expectations And Surprises, Federal Reserve Vice Chairman Stanley Fischer, At The Columbia University School Of International And Public Affairs, New York, New York

    Watch Live

    I will address the topic of central bank communications, with a particular emphasis on those times when financial markets and the central bank have different expectations about what a central bank decision will be. Such situations lead to surprises and often to market volatility.

    Of course, not all surprises are equal. For one, communications that shift or solidify expectations that are diffuse or not strongly held are less likely to be disruptive than communications that run counter to strongly held market beliefs. Further, there are worse things than surprises. The central bank must provide its views regarding the likely evolution of monetary policy, even when this view is not shared by market participants. A concern for surprising the market should not be a constraint on following or communicating the appropriate path of monetary policy. That said, there are good reasons to avoid unintended surprises in the conduct of policy.
