Currently, members of SGX-DT can access market-depth information of these traded derivatives contracts on their ETS trading screens.

Mr Jimmy Ang, SGX-DT's Executive Vice President said: "This is part of SGX's continual efforts to provide investors with higher level of transparency in an open, efficient and sound trading environment. At the end of the day, they will have a better gauge of market sentiments and make better and more informed trading decisions."
