The exchange also hopes to gain US recognition as a clearing house within the next couple of months, which will allow US customers to once again add to their positions in Singapore's iron ore swaps market, Mr Ramaswami said.

SGX recently shifted to a new information technology infrastructure that is expected to streamline operations and lower transaction costs. And we're working with the brokers on when is the right time and how do you do it.

Mr Ramaswami did not expect the single-stock option market to be an earthshaking business because of the size of the Singapore securities cattle stock markets in general, but he believed it would offer enough opportunities for investors to add sgx single stock options liquidity.

But if you have an option market, you can write a call.

SGX has also applied and is awaiting recognition from the US Commodities and Futures Trading Commission CFTC as a derivatives stock market buyout organisation, said Mr Ramaswami. The lack of that designation put a damper on SGX's iron ore swaps market - which clears more than 90 per cent of the world's iron ore swaps - in October as new CFTC rules prevented US customers from adding to their positions on non-recognised clearing houses.
