ePrime Northbound Overview
ePrime is Bond Connect’s innovative, one-stop solution that facilitates China cross-border flows in the primary bond market through its book building and subscription modules. It aims to benefit issuers, underwriters and investors who seek increased efficiency and scalability during the process.

ePrime Northbound is a direct access subscription platform for offshore investors to participate in the China onshore primary market. It allows investors to establish connections with onshore underwriters, principally engage in the bidding process and receive allocation confirmation. It was designed for the usage of offshore investors (traders, portfolio managers, back office and operations teams) and onshore underwriters (DCM teams and syndicates) via ePrime’s seamless interface with CFETS’ iDeal.
