Singapore Exchange ( SGX) is consulting the public on a proposal to list the Robusta Coffee Contract (Robusta Coffee) on its derivatives platform. This is part of SGX’s plan to bring all commodities contracts onto one single trading platform.

Currently, the SICOM Robusta Coffee Contract trades on Singapore Commodity Exchange (SICOM), a subsidiary of SGX. The move to transfer the listing of the Robusta Coffee from SICOM to SGX derivatives platform will open up access to a wider pool of international traders, thereby enhancing efficiency and promoting price discovery.
