Furthermore, the capital market has remained active this year, with daily trading volume on listed and emerging stock exchanges exceeding NT$1 trillion, making Taiwan the world's fifth largest capital market. A vibrant market requires stable, secure, and efficient back-office infrastructure. TDCC adopts a dual-track development strategy of "resilience" and "inclusive finance," continuously strengthening its core systems and infrastructure to respond pragmatically and prudently to the rapidly changing financial environment.

In terms of "resilience," TDCC is committed to strengthening the stability and security of financial market infrastructure, improving the operational capacity and efficiency of the depository system, and deepening the application of supervisory technology and cybersecurity mechanisms to enhance the overall resilience of market services. By improving system capacity, optimizing operational processes, and strengthening operational continuity management, TDCC further reduces market operational risks and costs, improves settlement efficiency and market liquidity, and continuously strengthens the resilience of financial market operations.

In terms of " inclusive finance," TDCC promotes inclusive finance and digital service innovation. Through diversified platforms and convenient measures, it enhances investors' digital experience and service accessibility, allowing more people to share the fruits of financial development. Specific achievements include supporting the development of the Taiwan Individual Savings Account (TISA) system, continuously optimizing the "TDCC ePassbook App” service functions, and promoting the digitization of eCounter and various shareholder rights services, helping investors to more conveniently access asset information, exercise shareholder rights, and improve market transparency and service quality.

Dr. Bing-Huei Lin stated that TDCC set a target in 2025 to invest NT$10 billion in sustainable financial products within three years. With the increasing abundance of sustainable products in the market, TDCC achieved this goal ahead of schedule in June of this year, fulfilling its firm commitment to supporting sustainable finance and net-zero transformation through concrete actions. Furthermore, in response to the Financial Supervisory Commission (FSC)'s blueprint for Taiwan's alignment with IFRS sustainability disclosure standards, TDCC took the lead in disclosing sustainability-related financial information in a dedicated chapter of its 2025 annual report, aiming to set an industry benchmark and drive the market to collectively improve the transparency of sustainability information.

Looking ahead to 2026, TDCC will leverage financial technology to promote information integration and digital transformation, deepen diversified market services, and, through cross-sectoral, cross-industry, and cross-border data integration, uphold the principles of mutual benefit with industry players and assisting regulatory authorities in promoting financial development. It is committed to strengthening market infrastructure and service capacity, contributing to the sustainable advancement of financial security and development. Simultaneously, it will promote five major operational plans, including strengthening back-office infrastructure to guide investors with peace of mind; building digital innovation services to link the development of virtual and real assets; enhancing the digital mechanism for dealing with stock affairs to facilitate shareholders' exercise of rights; deploying information resilience to safeguard market interests; and practicing ESG development to promote sustainable transformation.

In the future, TDCC will continue to play a key role in the capital market infrastructure, working hand in hand with FSC and market participants to create a more resilient, efficient, and inclusive financial services environment.
