Article 8
|
A securities firm that meets the qualification requirements set forth in Article 11 may submit an application and relevant documents to the TPEx to operate the business of OTC trading of financial derivatives. No OTC trading of financial derivatives may be undertaken without TPEx approval of such an application.
When a securities firm applies to engage in the business of the preceding paragraph and the TPEx does not expressly reject the application within 10 days from the day after it receives the application, it means that approval is granted. The securities firm may not, however, engage in the business for which it is applying during the aforesaid 10-day period.
The qualification of a securities firm engaging in financial derivatives business that has passed TPEx review will remain in effect and further yearly applications will not be required.
