JPX group companies undertake various initiatives and disseminate information with the aim of providing the most attractive markets to all users.
Every month, we showcase the highlights of these efforts in short and concise summaries just for you.
Japan Securities Clearing Corporation (JSCC), a clearing organization of Japan Exchange Group, Inc., announced that the clearing volume in its clearing services for interest rate swap transactions (IRS) set a new record of JPY 1,181 trillion as of August 2023, exceeding the previous record, a yearly total of JPY 1,111 trillion in 2022.
Not only because of various improvements of JSCC‘s functions, but also because there is a growing need for interest rate hedging in light of recent changes in the interest rate market. The monthly average set a new record for the year as of the end of August.
This year marked the 35th anniversary of equity index futures trading at Japan Exchange Group, Inc. (JPX).

JPX will continue to contribute to the development of Japan’s financial market through the expansion of the derivatives market.
A satellite event to celebrate the listing of the first actively managed ETFs (Exchange Traded Funds) on the TSE market was held at KABUTO ONE on Thursday, September 7.
