KENANGA Futures Sdn Bhd plans to reintroduce its “Back 2 The Futures” campaign that would enable domestic clients to access both the US and Malaysian-listed derivatives on CME Group and Bursa Malaysia Derivatives Bhd (BMD), while getting rewards.

Kenanga Futures CEO and head of listed derivatives Azila Abdul Aziz (picture) said in a statement yesterday that the second series of the nationwide campaign is expected to take place from Aug 15 to Nov 15, 2018.

During the period, individual clients who traded BMD products, including new and existing investors who open an account and trade CME products, will get petrol cards worth up to RM200.

“This is our second nationwide campaign and we are honoured to be supported by BMD and CME, the world’s leading derivatives exchanges. The campaign will make it even easier for clients to be rewarded while being able to trade on both CME and BMD products on a single platform, which is our very own KDF TradeActive™ that is available on both desktop and mobile devices,” Azila said.

The Back 2 The Futures programme is also expected to help clients in Malaysia access new trading and develop futures and options markets for the local participants, as well as traders worldwide.

BDM CEO Jamaluddin Nor Mohamad said the campaign plays a key role in bridging the divide between retail investors and derivatives trading — in line with the firm’s commitment to educate and increase the participation of retail investors in the derivatives market.

The campaign is open to all existing clients and new eligible individuals aged 18 and above, having an account with Kenanga Futures to start trading on CME and BMD products.
