1 Key Features of Electronic Trading Platforms Gemloc Peer Group Survey 1 May 2011 I. Introduction Electronic trading platforms are increasingly used for trading of government securities due to their role in enhancing secondary market liquidity and information transparency. Though, there is significant variation across different platforms and countries in terms of extent of use, features, capabilities,, and regulatory oversight. To map these differences, the Gemloc Peer Group Dialogue (PGD) 2 team conducted a survey with the Pilot Peer Group member countries 3 following a PGD meeting on this topic. The survey was not meant to provide an exhaustive analysis of all the possible features of the platforms but rather examine aspects that are more relevant to debt management offices (DMOs) and that were discussed in some capacity during the PGD meeting. Survey results are organized in tables 1-6 below along the following broad categories: General Information, Access to Trading, Primary Dealer Obligations, Trading Information Availability, Fees, and Dealer-to-Customer Features. Detailed explanations and further information can be found in the notes accompanying the tables. The following provides some select highlights from the survey: Most of the platforms specialize in government bonds. Seven out of ten platforms were dedicated purely to government bond trading. Only Malaysia s ETP, South Africa s JSE Nutron, and Turkey s ISE BBM include trading in other instruments, such as corporate debt, asset-backed, and sukuk securities. The majority of the platforms accounted for a miniscule share (5% or less) of total secondary market trading in government bonds. Only three platforms Colombia s SEN, India s NDS- OM, and Turkey s ISE BBM had sizeable share of total trading, accounting for 59%, 80%, and 65%, respectively. 1 For any questions about the survey, please contact Tamuna Loladze (tloladze@ifc.org), Anderson Silva (asilva3@worldbank.org), or Baudouin Richard (baudouin.richard@live.be). 2 Gemloc Peer Group Dialogue (PGD) is an initiative within the Gemloc Advisory Services program, which brings together and facilitates technical discussions among emerging market countries on critical issues in development of local currency government debt markets. PGD activities include (i) periodic meetings via teleconference and webmeeting guided by World Bank experts and consultants; and (ii) production of background materials, presentations, and surveys on key topics, all of which are disseminated via the PGD website. Participants include representatives from different combinations of approximately 33 emerging market countries, depending on the topic being discussed. 3 The Gemloc Pilot Peer Group members are emerging market countries with the largest bond markets: Brazil, Colombia, Hungary, India, Malaysia, Mexico,, South Africa, and Turkey. (China, though eligible, has not been an active member of the Peer Group). Mexico did not provide a response to the survey.

2 Primary dealer (PD) obligations vary across the trading platforms. Trading on the platform is mandatory for PDs in four out of eight countries (Colombia, Hungary,, and Turkey). PDs are subject to minimum spreads and maximum quantities in six out of ten platforms; though, these are prescribed by the DMOs rather than the platforms. Trading information availability in terms of timing and anonymity varies across the trading platforms. All platforms grant real-time access to pre-trade information for platform and regulators and most platforms allow real-time or delayed access data vendors for the public; three platforms do not allow access for the public. For all platforms, pre-trade information is anonymous for platform and the public and not anonymous for regulators (except for India). For the platform in Brazil, anonymity for all actors, including regulators, depends on the choice on whether to remain anonymous or not. For the most part, post-trade information is available real-time for platform, regulators, and the public, with slight delays in availability for the latter with certain platforms. For all platforms, post-trade information is anonymous for the public and not anonymous for regulators; for platform, the information is anonymous for half of the platforms and not anonymous for the other half. Regulatory oversight of the trading platforms most commonly falls under the capital market or financial sector regulator (5 platforms), followed by oversight by the Bank (3 platforms), and the Ministry of Finance and Exchange (1 platform each).

The COB provides anonymous auto-matching of buyers and sellers. The current use of the COB is very limited. Colombia: Domestic CSD is DCV managed by Banco de la Republica ( Bank). DCV uses DVP model 1 with central bank money as cash settlement asset. Hungary: Settlement is done by a domestic CSD Clearing House and Depository Ltd. (KELER). KELER Counterparty Ltd. (KELER KSZF) acts as a CCP for all debt transactions except for block trades. The latter are bilateral deals that are settled in a gross manner according to the Delivery vs. Payment (DVP) principle.
