FAQs
CHESS (Clearing House Electronic Sub-register) is the ASX’s share transaction and settlement system.
It issues an easy-to-read statement to shareholders, detailing all their ASX holdings, providing investors with a secure way to hold equities in their own name.
CHESS-sponsored share trading offers numerous advantages:
- Full portability of securities, without potential tax implications
- All your ASX holdings are consolidated under one Holder Identification Number (HIN)
- Securities can be traded whenever markets are open
A unique Holder Identification Number (HIN) is allocated to anyone with CHESS-sponsored shares. With a HIN, rather than holding physical share certificates, all your holdings are recorded in a secure database.
We execute stock orders using smart order routing (SOR) technology, which sources liquidity from multiple venues, including regulated exchanges and MTFs, to optimise execution rates and fill ratios.
