The Singapore Exchange (SGX) recorded a 16 per cent increase in derivatives traded volume in August to 23.7 million contracts, on both a month-on-month and year-on-year basis. Derivatives daily average volume rose 7 per cent on the month to one million contracts in August, with broad-base gains across foreign exchange (FX), commodities and equities. The total FX futures traded volume reached an all-time high, up 26 per cent to 4.2 million contracts. The average daily volume also hit a record notional of almost US$12 billion. SGX said that growing uncertainties on the interest rate outlook have pushed investors to beef up currency risk management.

$TCIL HK$ (T15.SG)$ : IT IS a tale of two Japanese brands of Tan Chong International in Singapore, with Nissan doing very well and Subaru rather badly. The Hong Kong-listed car distributor revealed in its 2023 interim report published on the Singapore Exchange on Thursday (Sep 14) that Nissan did not suffer a decline in sales volume in Singapore in the first half of 2023. This was mainly due to the “growing popularity” and expanding line-up of its electrified e-Power range, which saw a 24 per cent year-on-year rise.
