In response to the rapid increase in market trading volume, China Securities Regulatory Commission (CSRC) is planning to promote a pressure testing mechanism for broker-dealer trading settlement systems.

In the future, securities firms may conduct system stress tests at least once a year. Securities Times reporter learned that the China Securities Regulatory Commission is soliciting opinions on the newly drafted "Guidelines for Stress Testing of Securities Company Trading and Settlement Systems." It is understood that with the rapid increase in trading volume in the securities market, problems with the performance of securities firms' trading systems are becoming more frequent. Therefore, the securities industry urgently needs to effectively improve its performance capacity management capabilities to deal with the impact of market fluctuations. In order to strengthen the construction of the industry's stress testing system, the China Securities Regulatory Commission has organized the drafting of the above-mentioned "Guidelines."
