The exchanges aim to combine each other’s product development strengths and expertise to efficiently serve the needs of each of their markets.

Since the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding in 2012, both the exchanges have been working closely to further product development cooperation and knowledge sharing.

The simultaneous launch of their respective polypropylene futures contracts in February 2014 was a result of this collaboration.

Both exchanges are continuing to engage with each other to use feedback from participants in each other’s markets to improve product design and specifications.

Following the recent discussions, DGCX has decided not to go ahead with the scheduled launch of Cash Settled China Soybean Oil futures contract at this time.
