The list of products that are open includes the following:<br \/>1)\u00a0\u00a0PTA, methanol, sugar, and rapeseed oil from Zhengzhou Commodity Exchange (ZCE).\u00a0<br \/>2) Crude oil, low sulfur fuel oil, rubber, and copper from Shanghai International Energy Exchange (INE)<br \/>3) Soybean and iron ore from Dalian Commodity Exchange (DCE)<br \/><br \/>As a brief overview of events, since 2016, global futures and options volume continued rising steadily each year. Subsequently, from 2020, China&#8217;s futures and options volume increased significantly, contributing to one of the highest growth volumes in the APAC region. This has eventually led to the opening up of the market in 2022 for more internationally accredited investors to participate in the economy, which will better expand\u00a0trade opportunities.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>However, what is being offered to international investors were only 7 futures and 2 options.
