SHANGHAI/HONG KONG - Global index publisher MSCI and the Hong Kong stock exchange said on Monday they will launch futures contracts on the MSCI China A Index to provide a hedging tool as international investor interest in Chinese mainland shares surges.
The license agreement between MSCI and Hong Kong Exchanges and Clearing Ltd , which will launch the new product, comes less than two weeks after MSCI announced it would quadruple the weighting of Chinese shares in its global benchmarks later this year. The new product is among a host of other derivatives launched by global exchanges in recent years to help manage exposure to mainland Chinese markets.
Li said on a conference call on Monday the new HKEX futures contract will track the entire 421 large- and mid-cap A-shares included in the benchmark MSCI Emerging Markets Index.
