NZX Limited has reported its shareholder metrics for the month ending November 2015. The figures represent a number of integral features of NZX’s operations in each of its core businesses showing a generally sustained growth for the month, according to an NZX statement.
In terms of the NZX’s cash market trading, November 2015 saw total trades at 127,393, representing a jump of 7.7% YoY from November 2014. Moreover, average daily trades managed to rise to 6,066 in November 2015, corresponding to a less pronounced 2.6% YoY jump from November 2014. This was reinforced by the total value traded of only $3.3 billion in November 2015, up 1.1% YoY from November 2014.
Equity transactions on the NZX were largely a similar storyline, with total trades surging to 124,411 trades in November 2015, up 7.5% YoY from November 2014. Additionally, equity transaction value traded at the NZX during November 2015 climbed to $3.2 billion, up 1.4% YoY from November 2014.

Last month, the NZX revealed that financial services provider for global markets, INTL FCStone Financial Inc., had been accredited as a Derivatives Trading and Advising Participant for the exchange’s Derivatives Market.
In particular, the partnership saw INTL FCStone Financial Inc. also become a General Clearing Participant for the NZX Dairy Derivatives Market. The new directive will see INTL FCStone become just the second US-based participant to achieve full membership status since the NZX was granted authorization as a Foreign Board of Trade by the US Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC ) back in 2014.
