J.P. Morgan has implemented its Taiwan-listed securities collateral pledge solution, becoming the 鈥渇irst鈥� global triparty platform to enable Taiwan-listed securities to be mobilised as pledged collateral.
The development follows enhancements to Taiwan鈥檚 foreign institutional investor (FINI) pledge framework in March 2026, allowing market participants to pledge Taiwan-listed securities as collateral while maintaining the assets within Taiwan鈥檚 domestic market infrastructure.
By unlocking Taiwan-listed holdings as a new source of collateral to support offshore securities financing and derivatives activities, this solution aims to help firms optimise liquidity and collateral management across global portfolios.
Robert Evans, head of Asia Pacific Tri-party at J.P. Morgan, says: 鈥淥ur clients are looking for greater flexibility in how they mobilise assets across markets.
鈥淭his pledge solution connects Taiwan鈥檚 local market infrastructure with J.P. Morgan鈥檚 global triparty platform, giving clients a more efficient way to put their Taiwan-listed holdings to work.
鈥淭his is an important step in expanding the use of Taiwan-listed assets within the global collateral ecosystem.鈥�
Hui-Chuan Tu, senior executive vice president at Taiwan Stock Exchange, comments: 鈥淭he enhanced FINI collateral framework brings Taiwan鈥檚 market infrastructure more closely in line with international collateral management practices and supports greater connectivity with global institutional investors.
鈥淲e welcome the collaboration across the industry that has helped bring this transaction to fruition and look forward to the continued development of Taiwan鈥檚 capital markets.鈥�
