With this move by NSE, investors can now trade in dollar-denominated Nifty futures contracts available on SGX at GIFT City. In addition, investors will also have real-time access to NSE IFSC market data.
The Singapore Exchange informed its trading members in a circular that the full-scale operation of the NSE IFSC-SGX Connect (CONNECT) will take place on July 3, 2023, with the transition of SGX Nifty derivatives to NSE IFSC. Post transition, all US dollar-denominated Nifty derivative contracts will be exclusively traded on NSE IFSC."
With the transfer of all open positions in SGX Nifty to NSE IFSC Nifty, no open interest will remain in SGX Nifty. SGX Nifty will be suspended from trading after the end of the trading session on June 30.
