The move is part of the broader strategic study currently being undertaken by the exchange to review its technology plan, in support of its strategic vision of creating a fully integrated trading, clearing and settlement facility for both equities and derivatives products.
Mr Thomas Kloet, CEO of SGX said, "This is a first step towards exploring the available options for a technology infrastructure that will consolidate our various clearing and trading platforms. In building the marketplace of tomorrow, we will look at applications that allow us to maximise the synergies of SGX's integrated derivatives and securities markets."
