Taiwan Depository & Clearing Corporation

The Taiwan Depository & Clearing Corporation (TDCC) held its Lunar New Year gathering on the 23rd for the Year of the Red Horse. Chairman Dr. Bing-Huei Lin stated that the organization will leverage AI technology and innovative digitalization to build a dual-core financial back-office. He also expressed hope that TDCC employees will cultivate cross-disciplinary thinking and the drive of a “Red Horse,” leading their teams with the momentum of “Yi-Ma-Dang-Xian (meaning taking the digital lead in Chinese idiom)” and “running at full horsepower” to reach new heights together.

Last year, TDCC reported nearly NT$8 billion in net profit after tax and achieved an impressive EPS of NT$7.88. Its five core businesses—stocks, futures, bonds and bills, cross-border custody, and funds—all delivered outstanding performance. During the New Year gathering, Lin thanked all employees for their hard work in safeguarding investors’ assets and producing remarkable results. In terms of innovative digital services, TDCC continues to plan operational frameworks for AI and RWA (real-world asset) tokenization, aiming to build a world-class financial back-office.

Lin also noted that TDCC introduced its first mascot this year—an owl named “A-Ying,” symbolizing “wise insight and round-the-clock protection,” which reflects one of the most important values in TDCC’s culture. Currently, employees under the age of 40 account for 27% of the workforce. Lin hopes that managers at all levels will demonstrate the leadership spirit of experienced guides, transforming their extensive experience into motivation for mentoring younger colleagues. The role of managers, he said, is not only to innovate and improve business operations but also to develop cross-generational understanding and flexible management styles. By building trust through effective communication, they can pass down professional expertise and rigorous standards, ensuring TDCC remains resilient amid the digital wave.

Facing compound challenges such as changes in U.S. tariff policies and rapid developments in AI technology, Lin emphasized the need for pragmatic responses and cautious optimism. Strengthening the resilience of infrastructure, upholding the original mission of service, and maintaining the value of integrity will ensure that financial innovation advances alongside security, allowing steady progress amid an evolving landscape.
