4. Our current priorities
JASDEC’s capabilities have been expanded
(Stock, CB, CP, Bond, Investment Trust, ETF, DVP, Pre-Settlement Matching, ISO20022…)
-> Several sub systems (over 20) may cover overlapped functions across products
Complicated platform create difficulty in upgrading, could trigger system disruptions…
PFMI
BCP/DR
More reliable
More flexible
More efficient
Regulatory/taxation change
Cost reduction
1. Integration of sub systems ( investment trusts + ETF )
2. Elimination of unused functions
New products
New functions
New services
