China's futures market set a new turnover record in 2010 with CNY 308.665 trillion traded, 2.3 times larger than 2009's futures market turnover.  Industry insiders pointed out that the listing of stock index futures and large capital inflows into the commodity futures market were the direct driving forces behind the large rise in futures market turnover in 2010.  Growth is expected to slow in 2011 due to price controls and other related policies.  3.133 billion futures contracts were traded in China in 2010.
