Clearstream to launch Bond Connect service

October 30, 2017--The international central securities depository (ICSD) Clearstream is about to launch its service to support the cross-border bond trading and settlement scheme "Bond Connect", linking the China Interbank Bond Market (CIBM) with the world.

Starting from 20 November 2017, Clearstream customers will be able to access Chinese bonds traded in CIBM via Hong Kong. The new service replicates Clearstream's Stock Connect offering for China A-shares where global bank Citi acts as Clearstream's local sub-custodian. Today, Clearstream customers already benefit from direct access to the China onshore bond market via Clearstream's China Bond Link. The new link complements this direct access link, which was launched last autumn. Bond Connect is a new mutual access scheme that allows institutional investors from Mainland China and overseas to trade in each other's bond markets through a connection between related Mainland and Hong Kong financial infrastructure institutions.
