On December 10, 2021, Cambodian Derivatives Exchange (CDX) was invited to join the panel discussion session during the 21st Training for the Approved Persons and Continuing Professional Education (CPE) program organized by the Securities and Exchange Regulator of Cambodia (SERC), providing insights into the topic of the Operation and Challenges of Derivatives Business in Cambodia.
Mr. Ven Sam Ath, Compliance Manager of CDX, represented the company to be one of the panelists. During the discussion, he rationally uncovered CDX’s successful operations and business models as the pioneering central counterparty (CCP) in Cambodia giving support and facilitating a desirable environment for our derivative brokers to have a good market positioning. He also expressed CDX’s gratitude towards SERC for the efforts, guidance, and cooperation, while showing CDX’s intention to work hand in hand with all derivatives-related parties to overcome all challenges, to bolster public attention, and to accelerate the market advancement.
Besides such a discussion topic, the agenda of the training well emphasized the roles and obligations of relevant entities and individuals in ensuring a higher standard and professionalism in the pursuit of strengthening market development with transparency and efficiency.
In contribution to education enrichment and reputation of Cambodia’s derivatives market, CDX has become a crucial long-lasting partner of the market regulator SERC, promoting the market to the international stage, not only in the Asia region but also in Europe including the iFX Expo international in Cyprus in 2018 and the London Summit in 2018 and 2019.
Locally, CDX and SERC have collaboratively accomplished many seminars, workshops, and training courses, both online and offline to educate and expose the advantages of derivatives investment. One that is worth the public appreciation as always is the nationwide derivatives education roadshow held at all provinces and cities of Cambodia as it has enhanced the awareness of the public and installed the market integrity for all prospects as well as for potential investors.
