Market Operations

05 Sep 2019

In order to preserve an orderly market, Hong Kong Exchanges and Clearing Limited (HKEX) has suspended trading in its derivatives market for the afternoon and After-hours Trading sessions at 2 pm on 5 September due to prolonged connectivity issues on the Hong Kong Futures Automatic Trading System. The clearing system for derivatives will remain open for the afternoon session only.

All other markets are operating normally. HKEX will provide further updates in due course.

Exchange Participants should refer to the circulars issued by the Hong Kong Futures Exchange on our website for details.
