China’s Dalian Commodity Exchange and Shanghai Futures Exchange publish such reports daily, while the London Metals Exchange and the Chicago Mercantile Exchange do so weekly.
“The Aggregate Exposure Report (AER) provides a breakdown of the aggregated open interest and position holders classified by each participant category, for commodity derivatives contract which meet publication thresholds approved by the regulator,” it said.
The reports, due to be released every Wednesday, will be published in both futures-only format and futures-and-options-combined format, it added.
SGX will disclose the AERs by four participant categories: financial institutions, managed money, physicals and others.
