Singapore Exchange (SGX Group) is experiencing a stellar year for derivatives trading with its recent September average daily trading volumes up 35% year-on-year and liquidity growing strongly across a wide range of asset classes. Ahead of FIA Asia in Singapore this week, we spoke with Matt Judge, European Head of Sales at the exchange about the trends that he is seeing in the market and how SGX Group is providing the global trading community with opportunities to trade hard-to-access markets in Asia.  

The continued growth of U.S. options markets has been a major story in listed derivatives over the past five years. Last week at FIA Expo, we announced that the TT platform will offer access to Cboe equity index options in early 2025, providing our global client base with connectivity to a deep and vibrant liquidity pool and the opportunity to trade Cboe’s flagship products – including S&P 500 Index (SPX) options and Cboe Volatility Index (VIX) options, which rank among the world’s most traded and liquid index options contracts. We recently spoke with Catherine Clay, Global Head of Derivatives at Cboe Global Markets, to discuss the U.S. options market and the importance of TT’s new connection to Cboe.

As the electronification of markets has led to greater transparency in global markets, so too has the power of trade analytics been enhanced to produce more comprehensive, accurate and actionable trading recommendations. 

This year, TT celebrates 30 years in business. Coincidentally, I also started my career 30 years ago.
