SGX is pleased to welcome Mizuho Securities USA Inc as its first remote clearing member. SGX was the first exchange in Asia in October 2013 to pioneer a new membership class for international clearing clients to access SGX platform from their home jurisdictions. This capability is required by the US Dodd-Frank Act, and SGX is the first in Asia to be accorded Designated Clearing Organization by the US status Commodity Futures Trading Commission.
