To kick off the second day of the International Futures Industry Conference, Shawn Creighton, the Director of Index Derivatives Solutions at FTSE Russell, joins the show for the second year in a row to discuss the issues that are creating the most buzz at Boca50.
During this quick, 10-minute podcast, Creighton delves into an array of topics, including:
- Interest in digital assets indices continues to expand, while the rise of cryptocurrencies powers the launch of perpetual contracts for Bitcoin and Ethereum futures.
- Geopolitical risks are driving continued growth of 0DTE options.
- Investor interest in products linked to sustainability has waned in the US, but remains steady in other markets.
- ‘Finfluencers’ and other channels are being leveraged to boost awareness of the Russell 2000 in markets outside the US.
- Say goodbye to your weekend because the push to offer 24/7 trading is only going to get stronger.
