Subject: | Risk Management Arrangements in respect of Easter Holidays - Reminder |
Enquiry: | 2211-6901 |
Reference is made to the circular (DCRM/ SEO CH/ 059/2017 ) dated 29 March 2017 regarding the risk management measures to be adopted by SEOCH in respect of the forth-coming Easter Holidays. Participants are kindly reminded to take note of the following arrangements:
The margin intervals for stock options classes will be increased temporarily after the close of business on 12 April 2017. Please refer to the Appendix for the temporarily increased margin interval for each option class. The margin intervals will be restored to normal after the close of business on 13 April 2017.
A special intra-day margin call on SEOCH Participants in respect of all open positions will be made at around 3:00 p.m. on 13 April 2017.
To assist Participants in better assessing the potential margin impacts, the Clearing House has made available a simulated Risk Parameter File ("Simulated RPF") on the HKEX website for Participants' margin estimation purpose. This Simulated RPF is prepared based on the settlement prices of 5 April 2017 and the temporarily increased margin levels. Participants may make use of the simulated RPF to estimate the clearing house margin requirements under the temporarily increased margin levels for their portfolios as well as the estimated funding requirements thereof. Participants should note that the simulated RPF is for reference only and does not intend to replace any daily RPF which are available at the end of each business day for the calculation of the actual day-end margin requirements.
For the purpose of the Capital-Based Position Limit (CBPL) assessment and the necessary additional margin calculation on the trading day prior to the holiday period, the normal margin rates

instead of the temporarily increased holiday margin rates will be applied. In this regard, the Clearing House will disseminate a tailor-made risk parameter file carrying normal margin rate ("Normal Margin RPF") via its website after the close of business on 12 April 2017 to assist participants in monitoring their CBPL.
The "Simulated RPF" and the "Normal Margin RPF" as mentioned above can be downloaded from the HKEX website with the hyperlink stated below:

Please ensure that your staffs are fully aware of both the temporary increase in the margin intervals and the special intra-day margin call and make necessary arrangement with your designated bank. You are also strongly advised to give advanced notice to your clients regarding these arrangements where appropriate and ensure adequate margin deposits from your clients are maintained during the holiday period.
