Taiwan Stock Exchange (TWSE)

The Taiwan Stock Exchange (TWSE) is the central institution for listed-equity trading and capital-market operations in Taiwan. Its recent priorities include using AI to streamline ESG reporting, considering longer trading hours and a shift to single-share trading units, and planning an earlier market opening for odd-lot trading. It is also promoting the Taiwan Prime Index, green securities certification and a review of warning thresholds for stocks subject to trading restrictions. The TWSE has additionally issued accounting guidance for stablecoins and internal-control guidelines for cryptocurrencies, reflecting the expansion of its remit into digital-asset governance. These reforms will affect trading convenience, capital allocation, corporate governance and market-risk management, making them important areas to watch.
