Your orders will be routed to Crossfinder™ by default in accordance with the CSJL Best Execution Policy. Crossfinder™ User Guidelines Asia Pacific Crossfinder™ Singapore is available for clients of Credit Suisse Securities (Singapore) Pte Limited and its affiliates. In respect of investors in Singapore, only professional investors and accredited investors are allowed to access Crossfinder™ Singapore. Your orders will be routed to Crossfinder™ Singapore once you acknowledge the receipt of our guidelines and agree to your orders to be submitted to and transacted in Crossfinder™ Singapore. Order Handling On receipt of your acceptance to participate in Crossfinder™, order flow directed to both electronic (direct access) and desk (worked) channels become eligible for matching in Crossfinder™. Connection to Credit Suisse’s electronic trading platform is via the industry standard FIX protocol. Credit Suisse Available Options and Controls Crossfinder™ provides our clients with extensive controls and parameters, to manage order types, minimum fill sizes, price pegging and counterparty selection. Private (dark only) vs. Public Orders: There are two ways to access Crossfinder™ for Direct Market Access (DMA) orders. In Private mode, orders will be subject to matching against other Crossfinder™ orders only. In Public mode, the default option, orders will be subject to matching against other Crossfinder™ orders as well as orders on the exchange. You can control this in a variety of ways as long as the connectivity is appropriately pre-arranged with CS IT. The most popular way is through the use of FIX tag57 (TargetSubID). Counterparty Selection: You can implement counterparty selection in Crossfinder™. Participants are categorized using our Alpha Score Card® methodology into three distinct categories: Natural, LiquidityPlus and Opportunistic – please refer to the Risk and Disclosure section for definitions. One or more of these groups can be excluded from your counterparty selection. This setting will affect all your orders and the default is to cross against all participants. Minimum Acceptable Quantity (MAQ): You can choose to avoid small crosses by setting a minimum acceptable quantity*: ƁƁ You can specify the MAQ as a fixed number of shares, on an order by order basis ƁƁ A Dynamic MAQ can be enabled that uses the symbol specific historical average trade size as a base line for minimum quantity.You can choose to further adjust this with your desired factor: for example to 2x or 0.5x of the average trade size. Your CS representative can configure this option as a default for you * In each of these configurations, crossfinder may fill less than the MAQ size, under the condition that it can execute 100% of the currently posted slice. ** Dynamic MAQ is only supported for a subset of the AES Algorithms. Contact your CS representative for more information. The default setting if you do not select this option is the minimum of either one lot or an order quantity that satisfies the applicable regulatory minimum size. Matching Price: The following execution options are available: ƁƁ Mid-Price Only ƁƁ Mid-Price or Better ƁƁ At or within the Bid/Offer Spread (Default)* No Self-Crossing: You can choose not to cross with other orders from your own organization. * This setting will affect all your orders, and the default is to execute at any price at or within the prevailing bid/offer spread subject to prevailing market rules. In Australia specifically, the default is Mid-Price. Please contact your Credit Suisse representative to choose your optimal configuration. Cross/No-Cross Flags: For Public (DMA) orders only, you can control whether to cross per order through FIX tag57. Standard Operating Rules, Procedures and User Priority Crossfinder™ executes orders based on the prevailing market rules: Order priority Australia Hong Kong Japan Singapore Price Priority: Highest price Buy orders, lowest price Sell orders take priority. Yes Yes Yes Yes Time Priority: When an order is entered into the Crossfinder™ order book, it is assigned a timestamp. If two agency orders have the same price, order timestamps are used to establish the execution priority (the earlier the order is received by Crossfinder™ the higher the priority). Yes Yes Yes Yes Counterparty Selection: The ability to opt out of counterparty categories based on the Alpha Score Card® methodology requires that within the price, time priority, matches will only be made if the selection criteria of the opposing orders permit Yes Yes Yes Yes Capacity Priority: Agency orders take priority over Principal orders of Credit Suisse and its group of companies. For Agency and Principal No Yes No N/A Yes Yes Yes Yes orders at the same price level, all Agency orders must be filled first. Market vs Limit Order: If all the above conditions are equal, Market orders take priority over Limit orders. No aggregation of orders is performed in Crossfinder™. Credit Suisse Crossfinder™ User Guidelines Asia Pacific 3 Matching and Execution Mechanism This section describes the matching and execution mechanism used by Crossfinder™. Crossfinder™ supports two types of orders: 1.Private orders: trade exclusively inside Crossfinder. 2.Public orders: are routed to exchange or other lit venue, while simultaneously kept available for trading in Crossfinder. Both Private and Public orders in Crossfinder™ are subject to the same matching and execution mechanism. When Crossfinder detects a potential matching opportunity for a Public order, it will cancel or reduce the resting exchange/lit venue order before executing internally. Crossfinder™ will only allow an order to execute at a price that is equivalent to, or better than the publicly available price. All trades in Crossfinder™ are reported in the manner and within the time limit prescribed by the underlying market rules. Trades are settled in accordance with the normal exchange procedures and settlement calendar. Private orders are kept within Crossfinder, while Public orders are kept simultaneously between the Exchange/ or other Lit Venue and Crossfinder. Market Matching Mechanism Minimum Size Public Order Books Trade Reporting Australia Orders can be matched within the National Best Bid Offer (NBBO) of the market in line with current Market Integrity Rules. NO ASX Tradematch Chi-X Chi-X Hong Kong Orders can be matched within the best bid/offer of the primary exchange, with trade price rounded to nearest 3 decimal places. YES (minimum lot size) SEHK The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited Japan Clients who are set-up for Smart Order Routing (SOR) in Japan will be matched within the NBBO inclusive of Chi-X and SBI. Those who are not set-up for SOR will be matched within the bid/offer of the TSE. Trade prices are rounded to the nearest 2 decimal places. YES (minimum lot size) TSE/OSE SBI JapanNext Chi-X TSE ToSTNET Singapore Orders can be matched within the best bid/offer at the market, with trade price rounded to nearest up to 4 decimal places. YES (50k shares, 150k SGD value) SGX-ST The Singapore Exchange (SGX) Once orders are executed within Crossfinder™, they cannot be canceled unless the execution was erroneous and/or both parties of the trade agree to the cancellation, subject to the local rules and regulations. Upon your request, Credit Suisse will also make available transaction analysis concerning the transactions that are conducted on your behalf on Crossfinder™. 4 Crossfinder™ User Guidelines Asia Pacific Credit Suisse Risks and Disclosure Classification of Participants As with all execution platforms, including the exchange, trading in Crossfinder™ does not guarantee that negative selection on your executions or abusive trading by your counterparties will not take place. Crossfinder™ utilises its proprietary Alpha Score Card® methodology to detect negative price selection. All Crossfinder™ executions are measured for alpha and liquidity contribution, based on a transparent quantitative methodology. All counterparties are categorized as follows: ƁƁ Natural – Credit Suisse’s client order flow trading through the AES platform and agency Sales/Trading desks. ƁƁ LiquidityPlus – Order flow derived from internal principal desks, external brokers, and systematic trading participants. ƁƁ Opportunistic – Order flow derived from participants with with significant short-term alpha generation. Clients can choose to opt-out from interaction with any of the above categories. Please consult your AES representative to discuss your preferred options. Market Data Latency To minimise latency arbitrage opportunities: ƁƁ Crossfinder™ utilises the fastest market data connections available within the Credit Suisse infrastructure to ensure that market quotes are up-to-date. ƁƁ Crossfinder™ is not offered in co-location or proximity hosting sites, which means that no preferential access is provided. System Delay or Outage As with all electronic platforms, Crossfinder™ may be subject to interruption, transmission delay or blackout beyond our control. In particular, Crossfinder™ obtains pricing information in respect of a Market of Reference from third parties (‘Data’). The ability of Crossfinder™ to achieve the performance described in these materials can be impacted by, amongst other things, system or data delay or interruption. Outage Procedure In the unlikely event that Crossfinder™ experiences a significant outage, Credit Suisse’s sales traders will communicate this via a combination of phone, email and/ or electronic messaging on a best efforts basis. During an outage, Public orders will by-pass Crossfinder™ and be directed to the exchange. Private orders will be rejected. Please contact your Credit Suisse representatives who can discuss in detail the processes employed in such circumstances. Conflict of Interest There may be occasions upon which a client order is matched against the principal orders of Credit Suisse (Japan) Limited, Credit Suisse Equities (Australia) Limited, Credit Suisse (Hong Kong) Limited or one of its affiliates. Due to the anonymity of the matching process, you may not be aware that such a trade has occurred until after its execution and at or after the time of settlement of the transaction. In the event that you wish to restrict your orders from matching against principal orders of Credit Suisse and its affiliates, please contact your Credit Suisse representatives to set up the appropriate counterparty filter. Access Security Credit Suisse has established information security policies and procedures and has implemented internal controls designed to ensure that during the ordinary course of business no one is permitted to access Crossfinder™ system components, view Crossfinder™ order book, access Crossfinder™ databases or physical hardware except for technology support to operate and monitor Crossfinder™. In order to provide support to your order and troubleshoot any problems with Crossfinder™, access to your trading activity will be available to a restricted group of Credit Suisse employees, including: Head of AES Head of AES Product AES Electronic Sales and Trading Teams Crossfinder™ Development and Support Team Counterparty and Default All transactions in Crossfinder™ are reported and cleared in the respective local jurisdiction. Procedures around settlement failure will follow the rules of the local market concerned. Fees and Commissions There are no separate fees for accessing Crossfinder. There are no rebates or differential pricing for making or taking liquidity within Crossfinder. The standard and pre-existing execution commission rates that are in place for your orders will apply.
