Other enhancements include narrowing of the trading break to 30 minutes.

Singapore Exchange (SGX) on Wednesday said its derivatives market will introduce various enhancements from 30 August including an extension of trading hours, according to an SGX release.

SGX said the derivatives market will be extending trading hours from 1.00 am to 2.00am. It will also be narrowing the trading break between the T session close and the start of the Pre-Open of the T+1 session for the SGX Nikkei 225 Index and SGX MSCI Taiwan Index suite of products to 30 minutes.

“The new hours of the exchange will allow customers to better manage their positions in response to news and market movements during the European and North American trading hours. This enhancement further strengthens our Asian Gateway offering and affirms our commitment towards making our market more accessible to international and domestic customers,” said Ms Janice Kan, Senior Vice President, Derivatives at SGX.
