Trading Days, Business Days & Settlement Activity for 2017
This notice lists national public holidays, for the 2017 calendar year that have been declared at the date of the notice. The list indicates whether those public holidays are declared by ASX as being Trading/non-Trading Days (ASX Cash Market and ASX Derivatives Market open/closed) and Business/non-Business Days. In addition, the list indicates the settlement activity on those public holidays for both ASX Settlement (CHESS) and ASX Clear (Derivatives).
It can be assumed that any weekday not included in this list will have settlement being performed by both ASX Settlement and ASX Clear, as well as being considered a “Business Day” and a “Trading Day” as defined in the Definitions section of the ASX Operating Rules.
From 2017 ASX will only close early when the last trading day before Christmas and New Year’s Holidays are the respective Eve of these holidays. As such ASX trade will not observe an early close on the 22nd or 29th December 2017.
Trading should be in accordance with established practice.
