TWSE provides the main market for Taiwan-listed equities. It is distinct from Taipei Exchange, which serves other segments of Taiwan’s capital market. TAIEX tracks the TWSE market; users comparing Taiwanese securities should confirm the actual listing venue rather than assuming all domestic shares trade on the same exchange.
