SGX sees sustained derivatives trading and OTC clearing growth

Reported 10% daily average value traded growth and 19% year-on-year surge in overall derivatives trading volume.

Singapore Exchange (SGX) on Thursday said its derivatives trading and OTC clearing businesses grew steadily in August 2010, according to its report.

Securities Market
SGX’s Securities trading remains healthy month-on-month. Daily average value traded for August was $1.5 billion, 10% higher than in July.

Derivatives and Commodities Markets
SGX’s overall derivatives trading volume grew 19% year-on-year to 5.3 million contracts, while its overall options trading volume increased year-on-year to 24,000 contracts, as compared to 3000 contracts a year ago.

AsiaClear achieved 132% increase year-on-year with close to 17,000 contracts cleared.

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.
