  TASE Regulations
 

The law requires the TASE to formulate Rules, as a condition to receive a license. The Rules and any change thereto are subject to approval by the Minister of Finance, following consultation with the Israel Securities Authority, and approval by the Knesset (Israeli Parliament) Finance Committee.

 

The TASE is permitted to institute Regulations based on the Rules. The Regulations and any change thereto are subject to approval by the Israel Securities Authority.

 

The TASE is permitted to issue Temporary Regulations in order to examine a subject prior to their being permanently included in the rules or regulations of the TASE. Temporary regulations require approval by the Israel Securities Authority and notification of the Minister of Finance and the Knesset Finance Committee, as stipulated in the Securities Law. Temporary Regulations remain in effect for a period of one year, which can be extended by an additional year.

 

The TASE Rules and Regulations are divided into several sections:

  1. TASE members
  2. Listing
  3. Trading on the TASE
  4. Rules for maintenance, suspension, and delisting
  5. Publication of information by the TASE
  6. Trading and clearing fees
  7. Listing of derivatives (MAOF)

Trading on the TASE is performed through TASE Members  

The TASE Rules and Regulations set forth the terms of qualifications for TASE membership and the procedure for acceptance of new members. In addition, the Rules and Regulations stipulate the areas of activity permitted to non-bank TASE members, the obligations of TASE members towards the TASE and its members, and rules of conduct for TASE members towards their customers.

Trading on the TASE is carried out through the TASE members, based on the guidelines set forth in the TASE Rules and Regulations.

The TASE supervises and controls compliance with the TASE Rules and Regulations by TASE members. When necessary, the TASE implements a disciplinary process against members which have not complied with the directives of the Rules and Regulations.

Listing Securities on the TASE 

The Rules and Regulations establish threshold requirements for listing securities. The Rules and Regulations also establish maintenance rules for companies which list securities on the TASE.

Clearing Houses  

Clearing is handled by two clearing houses:

1.    The Tel Aviv Stock Exchange Clearing House Ltd. (“TASECH”), which clears and settles transactions in securities listed on the TASE, excluding derivatives (options and futures). This clearing house also provides additional clearing services, such as clearing non-listed securities, services for securities traded outside of Israel provided by Citibank to TASECH members, and more.

2.     The Derivatives Clearing House Ltd., which issues derivatives and clears derivatives transactions on the TASE.

Each Clearing House operates under bylaws established by its board of directors.
