Korea Exchange (KRX) said it began operating a mock market on the 6th ahead of the rollout of the pre- and after-market system scheduled for Sept. 14.
Fifty member firms participating in the KRX securities market took part in the system check that day, including seven large domestic securities firms, 29 small and midsize firms, and 14 foreign securities firms.
The mock market will run a total of six sessions over five months. Sessions 1 through 5 will operate from 10 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., and the final sixth session will operate from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m., matching the planned actual hours.
Korea Exchange (KRX) said it will create a market environment identical to the actual system requirements to help member firms check system consistency.
