Singapore Exchange launches Reach trading engine

Reach offers 10 times more capacity with ultra-low latency of less than 90 microseconds.

Singapore Exchange’s (SGX) new securities trading engine – Reach – began operating from on Monday. Reach benefits market participants by making price discovery more efficient, thereby improving market quality and liquidity.

Reach offers 10 times more capacity and is the world’s fastest trading engine with ultra-low latency of less than 90 microseconds. It is part of SGX’s $250 million technology investment to strengthen market infrastructure. In April 2011, two other components of the initiative were rolled out, the state-of-the-art SGX Data Centre and Co-Location services.

“The launch of Reach puts Singapore ahead of many global financial centres. Singapore’s competitiveness depends on innovation and improvement and we are proud to contribute to this with our investment in the best market technology and infrastructure,” said Mr Magnus Bocker, CEO of SGX in its report.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

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.
