Section 1: Electronic payment and settlement

50.

50. Prior to the stipulated time for settlement, a Clearing Institution shall notify each participant entity of the net-credit or net-debit positions for verification, and then transmit the same to the Bank or the agent bank designated by the Bank for the execution of settlements.

In executing settlements as referred to in the preceding Paragraph, all participant entities with net-debit positions shall supplement those net settlement positions, after which the Bank or the agent bank designated by the Bank will transfer net-credit positions into their accounts.

A Clearing Institution may transfer funds several times during the daily settlement period, while transmitting and managing transfers initiated by itself.

Where the balance in the settlement account of a participant entity is insufficient to effect payment of amounts payable, the Clearing Institution shall be responsible for notifying the participant entity to make up the shortfall.

The stipulated time for settlement referred to in Paragraph 1 shall be separately prescribed by the Bank.

51.

51. Where a participant entity is unable to perform the settlement of debt at the stipulated settlement time, the Clearing Institution shall perform a supplementary settlement to complete settlement procedures within the time stipulated by the Bank as per Subparagraph 4, Direction 26 herein.

Neither the Bank nor its designated agent banks shall bear liability for the compensation of any loss resulting from the inability to complete daily settlement on time due to the participant entity's delay in the settlement of net-debit positions.
