HKEx tweaks stock futures and options offering

Hong Kong Exchanges and Clearing (HKEx) has tweaked its range of single-stock futures and options to include contracts related to Bank of China (BOC) Hong Kong (Holdings) and suspend those of China Petroleum & Chemical Corporation (Sinopec).

BOC Hong Kong futures and options will commence trading on March 17 for March, April, May, June and September contracts. But the exchange said futures and options in Sinopec would be gradually suspended after the market close on February 27, due to poor liquidity.

All outstanding positions in the March, April, June and September Sinopec futures will be traded until the expiration of the respective contract months or until all outstanding positions in any contract month are closed, whichever occurs first.

The trading of contract months without outstanding positions after market close on February 27 will be suspended. All existing Sinopec options in the expiry months of March, April, June and September will remain available for trading until expiration.
