SGX Statement On Derivatives Trading (Update At 7.00pm)

Date 05/02/2007

SGX has identified non-routine log-in activities of some member firms this morning that inadvertently prevented access to the derivatives trading system. SGX and OMX, our service provider, have addressed the issue and normal derivatives trading resumed at 11.30am today.

“We regret this morning’s incident. Member firms and customers have been kept abreast of the situation during the recovery. We thank them for their understanding and working closely with us. SGX remains committed to maintaining the highest level of confidence in our marketplace,” said Mr Gan Seow Ann, Senior Executive Vice President and Head of Markets at SGX.
