CNH London Tin Mini Futures

CNH London Tin Mini Futures contracts are the second batch of Renminbi (RMB)-traded London Metal Mini Futures contracts offered by Hong Kong Exchanges and Clearing Limited (HKEX). They complement the HKEX’s CNH London Aluminium/Zinc/Copper Mini Futures contracts, which were launched on 1 December 2014. Nickel, Tin and Lead are among the most liquid futures contracts on the London Metal Exchange (LME) along with Aluminium, Zinc and Copper. As each of the six metals has distinctive characteristics, uses and supply-and-demand dynamics, HKEX’s CNH London Metal Mini Futures can meet the various needs of base metals users, producers and investors, particularly those who are based in Asia and want to be able to buy and sell futures contracts during their business day.
