The famous market failure events (such as the Black Monday in October 1987 and the Flash Crash in 2010) promote the implementation of circuit breakers in global financial markets. The European Union (EU) amended final version of markets in financial instrument directive (MiFID 2) in 2014. In 2017, European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA) subsequently released ''Guidelines on Calibration of Circuit Breakers and Publication of Trading Halts under MiFID 2.'' Such rules provide an integrated framework of circuit breakers for EU member countries. In contrast, prevention of such flash crash events in Taiwan securities and futures markets do not deal with each other. Simplified circuit breakers and price limits, the precaution of flash crashes, have been used in the Taiwan securities market and futures market, respectively. Those markets need an integrated framework of circuit breakers. This paper analyzes the effectiveness of circuit breakers, simplified circuit breakers and price limits from the perspective of preventing market failures. We recommend that Taiwan securities market and futures market should establish circuit breakers in the future. Finally, it analyses recent regulations of securities and futures markets in Taiwan, referring to MiFID 2 and 2017 ESMA guidelines, then it tries to map the short-term, mediumterm, and long-term procedures to launch regulations for circuit breakers in such markets. |
