Korea Exchange (KRX) said on the 11th that on the 10th (local time) in Boca Raton, United States, it signed separate listing agreements at the Futures Industry Association (FIA) conference with Eurex, a German derivatives exchange, and ICE Futures US, an American exchange, to extend trading hours for Korea-related index derivatives.

With this agreement, investors will be able to trade Korea-related derivatives on European and U.S. derivatives exchanges without restrictions on trading hours.

This is a measure to "enhance access to Korea-related derivatives," one of the initiatives in the comprehensive foreign exchange and capital markets roadmap for inclusion in the Morgan Stanley Capital International (MSCI) developed markets index.
