SGX regulatory body seeks public consultation on changes in trading rules

All comments from the public must be made on 11 October 2023.

Singapore Exchange Regulation (SGX RegCo) is asking for public feedback on the amendments to its Futures Trading Rules (FTR), Singapore Exchange Securities Trading (SGX-ST) rules and Singapore Exchange Derivatives Clearing (SGX-DC) rules.

The proposed amendments are:

the admission and registration of Singapore Exchange Derivatives Trading (SGX-DT) Members’ representatives;

the requirements pertaining to customer margining where Members will have more flexibility in managing margin cycles, customer funds and collateral; and

the requirements for automated trading to formalise key aspects of the Algorithmic Trading Regulatory Guide.

The revisions also aim to provide clarity and readability of the rules.

The changes are proposed to comply with the SGX-ST rules with the FTR, where relevant, and include amendments to rules on automated trading and termination of membership.

Amendments to the SGX-DC Clearing Rules, moreover, are made to reflect corresponding FTR changes governing customer collateral.

SGXRegCo expects comments to be received by 11 October 2023.

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
