SGX geared up for Chinese securities trade

Dual currency trading option available to issuers listing RMB securities on SGX.

SGX announced iit is ready to list, quote, trade, clear and settle securities denominated in Chinese Renminbi (RMB).
The initiative enhances opportunities for issuers and investors keen to participate in the internationalization of the RMB and the robust Chinese economy.

Here's more from SGX:

SGX’s addition of RMB securities trading complements the offshore RMB bonds already listed on the exchange. SGX is also the world’s first exchange to offer the clearing of OTC FX forwards for RMB.

Issuers listing RMB securities on SGX can also choose to offer dual currency trading, giving their investors the flexibility to trade the security either in RMB or Singapore dollars.

“SGX, as the Asian Gateway, is committed to being the exchange of choice for issuers with RMB fund-raising needs and for investors who are keen to participate in the China growth story. The listing and trading of RMB securities on SGX will also extend Singapore’s position as an offshore RMB centre,” said Mr Magnus Bocker, CEO of SGX.

The initiative expands the suite of foreign currencies supported by SGX which currently includes the Australian Dollar, Hong Kong Dollar and US Dollar.

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.

The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.

So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
