Sinapore Exchange Launches Co-location Services

Interview with Tinku Gupta - Head of Market Data & Access, Singapore Exchange

The Singapore Exchange (SGX) launched its co-location services in a new data centre in April this year.

Co-location subscribers can now locate their servers in the same Data Centre as SGX’s trading, market data and clearing engines to experience the fastest possible access to SGX markets.

SGX colocation service will be the connection of choice for SGX Reach, the world’s fastest trading engine which will start operating in August this year, offering response times of less than 90 microseconds. The new data centre, SGX co-location service and the fastest trading engine are all key milestones of the S$250 million Reach technology initiative to deliver the fastest access to the world’s most exciting economies.

Ms Gupta is responsible for marketing and development of market data that includes the Straits Times Index (STI) and its index series, price feeds and company information. She also manages trading access into SGX.

As part of SGX’s Reach initiative announced in June last year, she leads the set-up of local connectivity hubs in key liquidity venues around the world like Tokyo, London, New York and Chicago and the co-location service to provide unparalleled speed of access to the trading community.
