Taiwan stocks may achieve "one share (1000 shares)changed to 1 share" to align with international standards? FSC promises to submit reform report within one month
The Financial Supervisory Commission Chairperson Peng Chin-lung stated that an evaluation of converting from the "one thousand shares per unit" system to a "one share per unit" system will be initiated, with a commitment to submit a report within one month to address the investment threshold issue for retail investors. The current "one thousand shares per unit" system makes it difficult for small investors to enter the market and creates a gap with international standards. While US stocks use "one share" as the unit and support fractional share trading, the system conversion faces challenges such as system upgrades and rebuilding investor habits.
