HKEX gets further into China

Hong Kong Exchanges and Clearing (HKEX) has added another plank to its China focused strategy with the 23 May launch of futures and options contracts on the FTSE/Xinhua China 25 Index (FXI China 25).

The index is based on the top 25 of the 300 China-linked companies listed on HKEX. While less than 500 lots daily have been traded in the new contracts since launch, the exchange said it has taken a long-term outlook on opportunities in China.
