The Chinese domestic derivatives markets continue to develop and
hit yet another milestone on 22nd July 2022 with the launch of
stock index futures and options on the CSI1000 Index. Prior to this
development the China Financial Futures Exchange (CFFEX) provided
index options and futures on the large and midcap sector of the
market as represented by the SSE50 Index, CSI300 Index and CSI500
Index. With the introduction of derivatives on the CSI 1000 index
universe, managers will now have the ability to deepen their
exposure to the Chinese small cap space with adequate hedging tools
available at their disposal to better manage risk. The development
is also likely to be welcome news for China's burgeoning onshore
hedge fund scene with quants eager to hunt for arbitrage
opportunities.
In light of this development, we are expanding our market
leading coverage to provide dividend forecasts and dividend index
points calculation on the CSI1000 Index universe to better help our
clients price derivatives, manage risk and identify arbitrage
opportunities in this space.
