[SINGAPORE] The chief executive officer of the Singapore Exchange (SGX) on Wednesday (Dec 3) cited the dual-listing framework with Nasdaq and the launch of institutional-grade crypto perpetual futures as examples of how the bourse is advancing product innovation. Loh Boon Chye, speaking on a panel with five other global exchange leaders at the Futures Industry Association (FIA) Asia Derivatives Conference, said that the definition of product innovation has evolved beyond novelty or speed. “It is about value equity, filling a market gap and, obviously, solving problems for customers... It is clearly about functionality, growing the market, unlocking access.” SGX reported a 17 per cent rise in derivatives trading volume this year, against the 7.9 per cent growth in global derivatives markets. Examples of product innovation in the derivative space included SGX’s partnerships with the National Stock Exchange of India and New Zealand’s Exchange (NZX). Under the tie-up with NZX, dairy contracts were consolidated onto a single platform, doubling both trading volumes and the number of clearing members, Loh noted.   https://www.businesstimes.com.sg/companies-markets/asian-exchanges-play-key-role-providing-global-investors-diversification-sgx-chief (ICE SINGAPORE)
