SGX teams up with NSE to launch world's first offshore Indian sector futures

Four USD-denominated contracts will be listed in Singapore.

Singapore Exchange (SGX) and India's National Stock Exchange (NSE) will list four sector-specific Indian index futures contracts in Singapore.

This is the first time that derivatives on Indian sector indices are being launched outside India.

SGX will list four USD-denominated index futures contracts based on India Index Services & Products Limited 's (IISL) sector indices, specifically the SGX Nifty Bank Index Futures, SGX Nifty IT Index Futures, SGX Nifty CPSE Index Futures and SGX Nifty Midcap 50 Index Futures.

The introduction of sector index futures contracts will deepen SGX’s Indian product offering and will provide offshore investors access to specific trading opportunities in the key growth sectors of the world’s fastest growing economy.

The SGX Nifty IT Index Futures and SGX CPSE Index Futures will launch on 29 March 2016, followed by the SGX Nifty Bank Index Futures and SGX Nifty Midcap 50 Index Futures in mid- 2016.

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.

If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
