Singapore Exchange Group (SGX Group) has bagged two Exchange of the Year awards this year for its robust service offering across multiple asset classes.
This comes amid growing institutional demand for trusted investment and risk-management solutions.
At the Asia Risk Awards, one of the longest-running awards for the derivatives and risk-management industry, SGX Group retained the title of “Derivatives Exchange of the Year”.
The group won for the way it “used the strengths of its multi-asset offering to forge new partnerships that carry the business forward, as well as the continued refinement of its digital workflow solutions”.
SGX also clinched the title of “Exchange of the Year” at the Asia Capital Markets Awards by FOW, a publication of London-based Global Investor Group. At the same time, SGX chairman Kwa Chong Seng received the “Lifetime Achievement Award”.
According to SGX, the event is one of the largest buyside-led awards that recognises outperformance, innovation and achievement in the Asian capital markets.
Lee Beng Hong, SGX’s head of fixed income, currencies & commodities, says, “We are honoured to be recognised by the industry for enhancing investor access via an innovative risk-management toolkit that stays relevant through change in the global environment. As the exchange partner of choice, our commitment to market participants is to bring continued liquidity and efficiency through the highs and lows.”
