APG Context Disclaimer

Context of this Document

The ASX Settlement Procedure Guidelines must be read in the context of the ASX Settlement Operating Rules or ASX Clear Operating Rules (as applicable).

Any terms explicitly defined in the ASX Settlement Operating Rules or ASX Clear Operating Rules, as amended by proposed rule amendments required to facilitate the implementation of the system that will replace CHESS (Rule Consultation) and used in the ASX Settlement Procedure Guidelines should be interpreted according to the definition given in ASX Settlement Operating Rules or ASX Clear Operating Rules. Because of the large number of these terms, they have not been capitalised for emphasis in this document.

In the interests of readability and comprehension, where a procedure applies only in the context of securities in a listed company, the specific term security has been used instead of the more generic term financial product.
