Six Chinese Brokers Complete Third Batch of Swap Facility Operations, Deploy First Stock Investments

CICC, Guotai Haitong Securities, CITIC Securities, Galaxy Securities, China Merchants Securities and Orient Securities have all completed the third batch of swap facility operations and deployed their first stock investments under the program, a reporter learned. The swap facility allows brokers to use eligible assets as collateral to obtain liquidity for equity purchases. The six firms are among the first to put the funds to work in the stock market.

The significance here is less the liquidity itself than the sequencing: the swap facility has moved from balance-sheet plumbing to actual equity deployment at six of the largest brokers, which suggests the mechanism is being tested at scale rather than held in reserve. That matters for domestic A-share sentiment and for how counterparties read the program's operational readiness. What is worth watching is whether deployment broadens beyond these first movers and whether the facility becomes a recurring channel rather than a one-off confidence signal.
