The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited plans to improve its derivatives market Block Trade Facility (BTF) with two enhancements in Q3 2023. The first enhancement enables the fulfilment of Minimum Volume Threshold (MVT) requirements for Block Trades through the summation of two legs to achieve an average price with more decimals than the tick size. The second enhancement allows Block Trade order entry for Stock Options after market close, from 16:00 to 16:25. These enhancements are subject to regulatory approval and market readiness. The Exchange will conduct two briefing sessions in July 2023, and interested participants must register before 17 July 2023.
