million contracts amid strong institutional demand.
Derivatives trading across equities, foreign exchange and commodities rose 22 per cent year on year to 28.3 million contracts in 2025, while average daily volume increased 17 per cent to 1.3 million contracts in the same period.
Mr Koh said more Western investors are now participating in derivatives trading on SGX, with over 20 per cent of trades occurring during the T+ time zone, which is the overnight trading session covering Europe and US market trading hours.
He added that since Liberation Day in April 2025, interest in Asia from the West has amplified, with SGX well-positioned as a platform for investors seeking to hedge risks arising from geopolitical tensions between the US and Asia.
“We are, by far, the most prominent exchange when it comes to China access for overseas market participants across the globe. Investors want to go to a trusted exchange where they know that their money is safe and there is liquidity.”
