AGERPRES - Romanian News Agency - 17 Iunie 2009
The highest number of contracts traded during one session, and the highest notional value traded since the launch of the futures agreements on the Bucharest Stock Exchange (BVB), were recorded on Tuesday, June 16, on the derivatives market, reads a BVB release.
Moreover, there was recorded on Tuesday the highest number of open interest contracts on the derivatives market too.

A total number of 1,177 currency futures contracts with a notional value of RON 5m (EUR 1.18m) were traded on Tuesday, while the open interest for the EUR/RON Futures contract reached 1,355 (single-counted), an all-time high.
All trades were concluded for the June 2009 expiration date, while EUR09JUN became the most heavily traded futures contract on BVB, with a total number of 3,051 contracts traded so far, corresponding to a notional value of RON 12m (EUR 2.85m)
'Tuesday's trading session confirmed the increasing interest of both investors and intermediaries in the derivatives listed on BVB as well as the importance of Market Makers in the creation and consolidation of market liquidity', declared Anca Dumitru, BVB General Manager.
