These regulatory mechanisms are designed to uphold market integrity, ensure fair trading practices, and protect investors from potential risks. By delving into the stages, inclusion criteria, and exclusions of the ASM and GSM frameworks, you can gain valuable insights to make well-informed investment decisions.
In the Additional Surveillance Measure (ASM) framework, stocks undergo surveillance in stages upon inclusion. Here's an overview of the four ASM stages:
Stage 1:
Securities are identified based on pre-defined specific ASM criteria.
Margin requirement: 100% from T+3 days.
Stage 2:
Stocks in Stage 1, meeting certain conditions over 5 consecutive trading days.
Conditions include significant price variation and client concentration.
Margin requirement: 100% from T+3 day, with a reduction in the price band to the next lower level.
Stage 3:
Stocks in Stage 2, fulfilling specific conditions over 5 consecutive trading days.
Margin requirement: 100% from T+3 day, with further reduction in price band to next lower level.
Stage 4:
Stocks in Stage 3, meeting defined criteria over 5 consecutive trading days.
Settlement on a gross basis with a 100% margin for all clients and a 5% price band.

Condition 2:

Through their stringent inclusion criteria and structured stages, these surveillance measures serve as guardians of market stability and investor confidence. By staying informed about the details of GSM and ASM, you can navigate the complexities of the stock market with greater clarity and confidence.
