ASIA
====
On Monday 5th June 2000, the HKFE will close their floor and go fully
electronic.
In Asia, the major futures exchanges that are electronic are:-
TSE - (home of the Japanese 10Y JGBs)
SFE - www.sfe.com.au
HKFE - www.hkfe.com
The only open outcry bastion still open in Asia is SIMEX and that's because
the Locals have a large influence over there. Only time and competition and
costs will eventually drag them kicking and screaming onto the screen based
technology.
=======
EUROPE
=======
Europe is already electronic except for the LIFFE commodities which will
move from the floor to the LIFFE Connect screen system later this year. If
you regard the LME as a futures exchange then they have yet to move to
screen trading. If anything, hell would have to freeze over before the LME
goes electronic.
