Singapore Exchange (SGX) has been named "Asia-Pacific Derivatives Exchange of the Year" by GlobalCapital for a fifth consecutive year.

SGX, which clinched the award over four other nominees, demonstrated its commitment to providing international investors with unfettered access to Asian emerging markets. SGX also played to its core strength as Asia's most international and connected exchange, providing liquidity risk management with the longest trading hours in the region. GlobalCapital, a leading news, opinion and data service, unveiled the winners of its annual Global Derivatives Awards on 25 September in London.

Michael Syn, Head of Derivatives at SGX, said, "We are pleased to have retained this award, which underscores the importance of staying close to the ground and innovating through the customer lens. We remain committed to helping our clients navigate the financial and commodity derivative markets successfully."

In August, SGX was awarded "Best FX Exchange in Asia" and "Best FX Clearing House in Asia" by FX Week, following voting by FX and money-market professionals. Earlier this month, the exchange was named "Derivatives Exchange of the Year" by Asia Risk for a fifth consecutive year and picked up the "Exchange of the Year - Derivatives" accolade at FOW's Asia Capital Markets Awards.
