2、般会联络上市公司。有关上市公司则必须立即回应交易所的查询。上市公司须履行他们在上市规则中的持续责任，及时地披露所有股价敏感资料，并确保这些资料能够公平发布。如上市公司并不知悉有任何事宜或发展会导致、或可能导致其股份价格或成交量出现异常的波动，有关公司须尽快透过披露易网站刊发公告说明该情况，有关公司毋须停牌。然而，如情况需要，例如当发现或怀疑有关异动是由于该公司某些股价敏感资料泄露所致，上市公司则须发表经由董事会通过的声明，说明该公司所知悉可能导致其股份价格或成交量出现不寻常波动的事项(包括任何涉及股价敏感资料的商议或讨论)。上市发行人如未能即时发放有关股价敏感资料的公告，可能需要暂停其股份买卖

3、，待发出公告后才恢复交易。所谓股价或成交量异动，是当一家公司的股份价格及/或成交量在没有明显原因支持下而有不寻常的表现；例如大市下跌，但公司股价却大幅上升，又或者交投量突然大幅增加。至于股价或成交量的波幅是否属异常的波幅，交易所会参照有关股份的过往表现，或该股份所属行业的其它股份表现，以及大市的整体情况等等来作考虑。所谓股价敏感资料，是指与上市公司有关、供证券持有人和投资者评估公司状况所必需的资料，或避免其证券的买卖出现虚假市场的情况所必需的资料，又或可合理预期会重大影响其证券的买卖及价格的资料(例如：在财务表现方面有利或不利的变化、集团重组、重要交易、发行证券等)。上市公司根据上市规则有责任

4、按具体情况及其本身状况评估什么属其股价敏感资料。就这方面，交易所编备了股价敏感资料披露指引以协助上市公司及其董事履行他们在上市规则中的责任。2 关于复牌的规定交易所一贯的政策是，如非必要，上市公司的股份应尽可能持续交易；暂停交易只是处理潜在及实际出现的市场混乱情况的手段，即使暂停交易的情况属必须的，停牌的时间亦应尽可能缩短。证券如已暂停买卖，复牌程序将视情况而定，交易所保留附加其认为适当的条件的权利。在一般情况下，当上市发行人发出适当的公告后，或其当初要求停牌的具体理由不再适用时，交易所会让公司复牌。在其他情况下，停牌将会持续，直至发行人符合所有有关的规定为止。上市公司就股价敏感资料或根据上市

5、规则须予公布的交易发出公告后，可于随即的交易时段开始时恢复交易。有关公告须具备充足资料，以求达到在恢复交易后，有关股份可在一个公平及市场已广泛知悉有关消息的情况下进行。3 交易所停牌期间的披露上市公司有责任刊发公告，以确保投资者和公众获得充分资料以对该公司的证券作出适当的评估。当上市公司要求停牌时，交易所会要求上市公司发出简短公告解释停牌原因，以增加市场透明度。交易所亦会于上市公司停牌期间一直与公司保持联络，并会要求上市公司于复牌买卖前发出公告。投资者可时常于披露易网站上的最新公告一栏查阅上市公司刊发的公告。根据交易所一般政策，交易所不会对个别公司、人士或案件作出评论。这政策使交易所按保密机制

6、执行其监管工作，以确保有关程序公正持平，并保障上市公司及其董事免受无理指控。此外，交易所因其监管职能而拥有某些资料，采取不评论政策确保交易所可履行其保密的法定责任。不过，在某些特殊情况下，交易所对具体事宜作出评论或提供资料或会较为恰当。交易所采取此做法主要是考虑到评论或提供资料有助以下目标：维护公众对市场监管的信心；履行其根据证券及期货条例第21条的责任，即在合理地切实可行的范围内维持一个公平、有序及消息畅通的证券交易市场；根据上市规则，维持市场整体的公正和声誉；保障投资者；防止不当行为充斥市场；及协助任何调查程序。4 关于退市的管理尽管大多数的读者都承认迄今为止我们已经给的例子，但是在绩效中

7、跟踪绩效悖论仍然不容易。它不仅可以采取许多不同的形式，也可以无意间导致一些变数，如政府的要求，需要执行的任务的要求，含糊不清或相互矛盾性质的政策目标，以及执行机构的能力。此外，一个人往往不知道绩效悖论的存在，直到为时已晚。因为，只要一切顺利，或看似顺利，没有必要进行干预（cf. Leeuw, 1995）。一个爆竹厂爆炸的例子中发现，调查原因，这场灾难揭示了一系列“小”的问题，这些问题本身并不被视为是灾难性的。例如，这个事件中明显缺乏地方和中央政府，监察局，消防部门的监督。缺乏适当的监督，就会阻止对非法活动发生的发现。因此，在住宅区经营的授权被不公正地无条件延长了。当火灾在工厂的地面上发生时，社

8、区被摧毁，人丧生。小问题的积累变成了大问题，但显然没有任何机制或制度，以检测和避免这样的小错误的积累。当然，当地政客被追究责任，但只能是事后。这留给我们一个问题，即我们怎样才能检测和预防公共部门中绩效悖论的发生。交易所营运的是一个持续交易的市场，虽然一贯的政策是上市公司的股份应尽可能持续交易，但为维持市场公平有序，交易所在其认为适当的情况及条件下可能会把公司停牌或除牌。此外，交易所亦可能在以下情况把公司停牌或除牌：发行人（上市公司）未能遵守上市规则，而情况属严重者；发行人证券的公众持股量不足；发行人进行的业务活动或拥有的资产不足以保持其证券继续上市；发行人或其业务不再适宜上市。 对主板公司而言

9、，若上市公司已持续停牌一段很长时间，但并无采取足够行动争取复牌，则可能会导致除牌。交易所会根据主板上市规则第17项应用指引所载的程序将在上述情况iii下长期停牌的主板公司除牌。若上市公司的证券已停牌6个月或以上而又未能符合有关的主板上市规则的规定，交易所会决定该公司是否需要进入除牌程序的第二阶段。进入除牌程序第二阶段的上市公司将有6个月的时间向交易所提交可行的复牌建议。若上市公司未能在限期内提交可行的复牌建议，将会进入第三阶段除牌程序。进入第三阶段除牌程序后，上市公司将有最后6个月向交易所提交可行的复牌建议。若发行人在第三阶段届满时仍未能提交可行的复牌建议，上市公司的上市地位将会被取消。交易所

10、亦可根据主板上市规则第6.10条将主板公司除牌。如交易所认为主板公司或其业务不再适合上市，交易所将刊登公告，载明该公司的名称，并列明限期，以便该公司在限期内对导致其不适合上市的事项作出补救。交易所如认为适当，将暂停该公司证券的买卖。如该公司未能于公告所载的限期内对该等事项作出补救，交易所可将其除牌。任何对该等事项作出补救的建议，将被当作新上市申请处理。对于创业板公司而言，若上市公司的证券已持续停牌一段长时间，而上市公司并无采取足够措施令证券复牌，交易所可取消上市公司的上市地位。若交易所拟向长期停牌的创业板公司行使其除牌权力，交易所一般会给予创业板公司通知，要求有关公司需于某段时间（一般为6个月

11、）内补救该等引致交易所打算行使其除牌权力的事项。于所定期限届满时，交易所可发出通知即时取消有关公司的上市地位，或倘公司提交的建议令交易所满意，交易所或会行使其酌情权延长除牌期限，而创业板公司须于限期内补救该等引致交易所打算行使其除牌权力的事项。除了主板上市规则第21章所界定的投资公司及主要或仅从事证券经纪业务的上市公司之外，无论是主板公司或创业板公司，若公司全部或大部分的资产为现金或短期证券，则该公司不会被交易所视为适合上市，交易所会将其停牌。在停牌期间，如该公司经营有一项适合上市的业务，即可向交易所申请复牌。交易所会将其复牌申请视为新申请人提出的上市申请处理。如该项停牌持续超过12个月，或在

12、任何交易所认为有需要的其它情况下，交易所均有权取消该公司的上市资格。 西安工程大学学士学位外文翻译原文 Suspension, Resumption and DelistingRegulation of Suspension There is no circuit breaker in place in Hong Kongs securities market, but the Exchange has in place a set of market mechanisms to monitor movements in price and trading volume of securiti

13、es.To maintain a fair and orderly market, the Exchange usually contacts a listed issuer if it notices unusual movements in the price or trading volume of its securities, or press reports or market rumours which may affect the price or trading volume of its securities. In those circumstances, the iss

14、uer must promptly respond to any such enquiries from the Exchange.Listed companies must fulfill their continuing obligations under the Listing Rules to provide timely disclosure of all price-sensitive information and ensure the fair distribution of the information. Where the listed issuer is unaware

15、 of any matter or development that is or may be relevant to the unusual price movement or trading volume of its listed securities, it should clarify the situation by publishing an announcement on the HKExnews website as soon as possible. However, a trade suspension is not necessary.Where necessary (

16、e.g. if it is found or suspected that the unusual movement is caused by a leak of any price-sensitive information relating to the issuer), the listed issuer must publish a statement duly approved by the board specifying the circumstances which it knows to have potentially led to the unusual movement

17、 in its price or trading volume (including any negotiations or discussions in relation to a price-sensitive matter). Where the listed issuer delays in issuing an announcement covering relevant price-sensitive information, trading in the issuers securities may be suspended until the announcement is r

18、eleased.Unusual movements in share price or trading volume refer to unusual movements in a companys share price and/or trading volume that have no obvious reason, e.g. a significant rise in the issuers share price when the market is plunging, or a significant increase in trading volume. When determi

19、ning whether or not any movement in price or trading volume is “unusual”, the Exchange will take into account the historical performance of the stock or the performance of other stocks in the same sector and overall market conditions. Price-sensitive information refers to information which is releva

20、nt to a listed company, necessary to enable holders of listed securities and investors to appraise the position of the issuer or to avoid the establishment of a false market in its securities, or might be reasonably expected materially to affect market activity in and the price of the issuers securi

21、ties (e.g. favourable or unfavourable change in its financial performance, group restructuring, material transaction and issue of securities etc.). Listed issuers are required under the Listing Rules to assess what is price-sensitive information taking into account specific circumstances and their o

22、wn conditions. In this connection, the Exchange has prepared the Guide on Disclosure of Price-sensitive Information to help listed issuers and their directors fulfil their obligations under the Listing Rules. Regulation of ResumptionIt has been the policy of the Exchange to refrain from trading susp

23、ension unless necessary. Trading suspension is just a tool to address potential and actual market disorder. Even if a trading suspension is necessary, the duration of suspension should be kept as short as is reasonably possible.Where dealings have been suspended, the procedure for lifting the suspen

24、sion will depend on the circumstances and the Exchange reserves the right to impose such conditions as it considers appropriate. Under normal circumstances, the Exchange will restore dealings as soon as possible following publication of an appropriate announcement, or when the specific reasons given

25、 by the listed issuer in support of its request for a trading suspension no longer apply. In some cases the suspension will be continued until any specific requirements have been met. Where trading in the listed securities has been suspended pending an announcement of price-sensitive information or

26、a notifiable transaction as referred to in the Listing Rules, resumption in trading of the listed issuers securities may take place during the commencement of the next trading session after the publication of the announcement. The announcement published by the listed issuer must contain adequate inf

27、ormation so that trading can resume in a fair manner with the market fully informed. Disclosure of the suspended companiesIt is the responsibility of listed companies to make announcements to ensure that investors and the public are given sufficient information for making properly informed assessmen

28、t of the listed companies securities. To enhance market transparency, the Exchange will require companies to issue a short explanation when they request a trading suspension. The Exchange will maintain contact with listed companies when their securities have been suspended from trading, and require

29、them to make an announcement before trading in their securities resumes. Investors are advised to frequently check the Latest Listed Company Information on the HKExnews website for the listed companies announcements. It is the Exchanges general policy not to comment on individual companies, individu

30、als, or cases. This policy enables the Exchange to discharge its regulatory function on a confidential basis and to preserve the integrity of its process, as well as to protect listed issuers and their directors against whom unfounded accusations may have been made. The “no comment” policy exists pr

31、imarily for these reasons, and to ensure that the Exchange meets its statutory obligation to maintain confidentiality with respect to regulatory information in its possession.In certain exceptional circumstances, however, it may be appropriate for the Exchange to comment, or to give information, abo

32、ut specific matters. The key reasons why the Exchange may adopt this approach are to maintain public confidence in the regulation of the market or to discharge its obligation, pursuant to Section 21 of the Securities and Futures Ordinance, to maintain, as far as reasonably practicable, an orderly, i

33、nformed and fair market for the trading of securities and under the Listing Rules to preserve the general integrity and reputation of the market; to protect investors; to prevent widespread malpractice; or, help any investigation process.Regulation of delistingThe Exchange operates a continuous trad

34、ing market. In spite of its consistent policy to allow continuous trading in a listed issuers securities as far as possible, the Exchange may, for the sake of maintaining a fair and orderly market, suspend trading in a listed companys securities or delist a company in such circumstances and subject

35、to such conditions as it thinks fit. The Exchange may also do so where: i.the issuer (the listed company) fails, in a manner considered material, to comply with the Listing Rules; ii.there are insufficient securities in the hands of the public; iii.the issuer does not have a sufficient level of oper

36、ations or assets to warrant the continued listing of its securities; iv.the issuer or its business is no longer suitable for listing. For Main Board listed companies, the continuation of a trading suspension for a prolonged period without the issuer taking adequate action to obtain restoration of li

37、sting may lead to the Exchange cancelling the listing. The Exchange will delist a Main Board listed company whose securities have been suspended from trading for a prolonged period for the reason set out in (iii) above in accordance with the procedures set out in Practice Note 17 of the Main Board L

38、isting Rules. For a listed issuer whose securities have been suspended from trading for six months or more and which has failed to comply with relevant Main Board Listing Rules, the Exchange will determine whether it is appropriate to proceed to the second stage of the Delisting Procedures. Where a

39、listed issuer is placed to the second stage of the Delisting Procedures, it is given six months to submit a viable resumption proposal to the Exchange. The listed issuer will be placed to the third stage of the Delisting Procedures should it fail to submit a viable resumption proposal within the pre

40、scribed timeframe. Upon entering the third stage of the Delisting Procedures, the listed issuer will be given a final six months to submit a valid resumption proposal. Where no viable proposal has been received from the issuer for resumption of trading by the end of the third stage, its listing will

41、 be cancelled.The Exchange may also delist a Main Board company in accordance with Main Board Listing Rule 6.10. Where the Exchange considers that a Main Board issuer or its business is no longer suitable for listing it will publish an announcement naming the issuer and specifying the period within

42、which the issuer must have remedied those matters which have rendered it unsuitable for listing. Where appropriate the Exchange will suspend dealings in the securities of the issuer. If the issuer fails to remedy those matters within the period set out in the announcement, the Exchange will cancel t

43、he listing. Any proposals to remedy those matters will be treated as if they were an application for listing from a new applicant.Where the securities of a GEM issuer have been continuously suspended for a prolonged period without the issuer taking adequate action to obtain a restoration of the listing, the Exchange may cancel their listing
