2011 witnessed major developments in China’s derivatives space with further regulatory clarity provided by authorities. The activeness of FX options in the interbank market, growth in offshore CNH derivatives products and new opportunities arising for domestic exchanges and futures companies in the international markets all constitute a promising picture for market participants.

However, against the backdrop of RMB volatility and credit concerns of Chinese corporates inside and outside the mainland, further key questions still need to be answered to allow the full adoption of derivatives tools to hedge risks. Key questions such as the impact of global regulatory reform on Chinese institutions? What is stopping onshore CRM from taking off? Will there be new products on exchange platforms? What is the next step for exchanges to work together in the region?

Now in its ninth year, Euromoney Seminars’ China Derivatives Summit will once again welcome the major market players involved in the onshore and offshore derivatives sectors to discuss these key questions and many more relating to the derivatives market in China.
