• Asia Risk, FOW accolades underscore strength of multi-asset service offering
• SGX Chairman receives FOW’s Lifetime Achievement Award

Singapore Exchange (SGX Group) has clinched two Exchange of the Year awards for delivering a robust service offering across multiple asset classes amid growing institutional demand for trusted investment and risk-management solutions.

SGX Group retained “Derivatives Exchange of the Year” at the Asia Risk Awards, one of the longest-running awards for the derivatives and risk-management industry. Leading publication Asia Risk cited the way SGX Group used the strengths of its multi-asset offering to forge new partnerships that carry the business forward, as well as the continued refinement of its digital workflow solutions.

SGX Group also claimed the “Exchange of the Year” accolade at the Asia Capital Markets Awards by FOW, a publication of London-based Global Investor Group, while SGX Chairman Kwa Chong Seng received its “Lifetime Achievement Award”. The event is one of the largest, buyside-led awards that recognises outperformance, innovation and achievement in the Asian capital markets.

Lee Beng Hong, Head of Fixed Income, Currencies & Commodities at SGX Group, said, “We are honoured to be recognised by the industry for enhancing investor access via an innovative risk-management toolkit that stays relevant through change in the global environment. As the exchange partner of choice, our commitment to market participants is to bring continued liquidity and efficiency through the highs and lows.”

Last month, FX Markets magazine named SGX FX as the “Best FX Exchange” for a fifth consecutive year at its Asia FX Awards, which celebrates the best-in-class across the foreign exchange industry in Asia-Pacific.
