Indian stock market driven by long-term investors, not speculation: NSE CEO

Majority of Indians are long-term investors as only 2 per cent actively trade in derivatives out of the 110 million market participants, National Stock Exchange (NSE) MD and CEO Ashish kumar Chauhan has said.

NSE expands high-bandwidth options for commodity derivatives trading

The National Stock Exchange (NSE) on Tuesday said it is introducing additional higher bandwidth options, within the co-location facility for commodity derivatives trading, a move that will improve access for market participants. While higher bandwidth options are already available for equity, equity derivatives, and currency derivatives within the co-location facility, these options were not previously available for commodity derivatives due to the lack of co-location in this segment. However, with commodity derivatives now available across more than 25 products in sectors such as energy, bullion, and base metals, there has been an increased demand for higher bandwidth in leased line connectivity. To address this demand, NSE in a statement said it is introducing additional higher bandwidth options for last-mile connectivity through telecom network integrator, SIFY Technologies Ltd. Members can now choose from bandwidth options of 50 Mbps, 100 Mbps, 150 Mbps, 200 Mbps, and 300 Mbps,
