Summary

  • S$455.7 billion in FY2026 securities turnover and 363.5 million derivatives contracts capped what SGX called a stellar year, with June momentum still accelerating across both markets.
  • 34.3 million June derivatives contracts—up 31% year on year—and a 72% jump in monthly securities turnover to S$44.6 billion reflected stronger use of SGX risk-management tools and active trading demand.
  • 5,170.65 on the Straits Times Index in June, up 30.4% from a year earlier, helped drive cash-equities activity; retail investors were net buyers for a fifth straight month and FY2026 retail net inflows reached S$2.4 billion.
  • S$20.5 billion in ETF assets, record GIFT Nifty open interest of 297,572 lots, and 31% growth in FY2026 FX futures volume to 96.3 million contracts showed broad-based expansion beyond benchmark stocks.
  • 78.8 million commodities lots in FY2026—up 21%—and an 18-year high in securities daily average value underscored how hedging demand, policy-driven volatility and structural investment themes lifted activity across SGX.
