HKD Real Time Gross Settlement ("RTGS") system, which is known as HKD Clearing House Automated Transfer System ("CHATS") was launched on 9 December 1996 by Hong Kong Interbank Clearing Limited ("HKICL").
All licensed banks in Hong Kong are obligated to maintain HKD settlement accounts with the Hong Kong Monetary Authority ("HKMA"). Since June 2000, restricted licence banks with a clear business need are also allowed to open settlement accounts with the HKMA. Under the RTGS system, every CHATS transaction has to be settled on an individual and gross basis. Unless with special instruction specified, payment instructions are settled immediately if there is sufficient balance in the settlement account. Banks without sufficient credit balances or securities for intraday repo to effect outgoing payment instructions will have their instructions queued in the system. The queuing mechanism allows the banks to manage their own queues of payment instructions through cancellation or re-sequencing. When a payment has been settled across the books of the HKMA, it will be regarded as final and irrevocable.

The USD SI is a commercial bank. Each direct participant has to open and maintain a settlement account with the USD SI and USD transactions are settled across the books of the USD SI. The USD RTGS adopts a two-tiered membership structure; Banks in Hong Kong can join the system as either direct participants or indirect participants; other institutions which have been permitted by the USD SI and the HKMA can also join the USD clearing system. Direct participants may obtain interest-free intraday liquidity through intraday repo arrangement by pledging the Exchange Fund Bills and Notes or other eligible debt securities to the USD SI as collaterals.
