NSE Adds High-Bandwidth For Commodity Derivatives Trading

New Delhi: The National Stock Exchange (NSE) has decided to add additional higher bandwidth options, within the co-location facility for commodity derivatives trading, a move that will improve access for market participants.

While higher bandwidth options are already available for equity, equity derivatives, and currency derivatives within the co-location facility, these options were not previously available for commodity derivatives due to the lack of co-location in this segment.

However, with commodity derivatives now available across more than 25 products in sectors such as energy, bullion, and base metals, there has been an increased demand for higher bandwidth in leased line connectivity. To address this demand, NSE in a statement said it is introducing additional higher bandwidth options for last-mile connectivity through telecom network integrator, SIFY Technologies Ltd.
