SGX panel completes probe into trading breakdown

Singapore

THE investigation into the trading breakdown at Singapore Exchange (SGX) in November last year has been completed, with the SGX board committee of inquiry submitting its report to the SGX board and the Monetary Authority of Singapore, the exchange said on Wednesday.

A power outage at SGX's data centre had shut down its securities and derivatives trading systems for at least three hours on Nov 5 last year, resulting in one of the most serious trading outages in recent years.
