Founded in 1993, Dalian Commodity Exchange (DCE) is one of the five futures exchanges regulated and supervised by the China Securities Regulatory Commission (CSRC) upon the approval of the State Council. On 29 August, 2013, General Secretary Xi Jinping inspected and instructed DCE to create a path to success with solid steps and audacious spirit.

Since its establishment about three decades ago, DCE has upheld the goals of serving national strategies and the real economy with smooth operation and steady development. A total of 21 commodity futures and 13 options have been listed on DCE, including the world’s first physically delivered iron ore futures and China’s first physically delivered livestock – live hog futures. So far, DCE has 160 members, 2.07 million investor accounts, 527 designated delivery warehouses and 16 depository banks. In 2022, DCE recorded a trading volume of 2.3 billion lots (one-sided, the same below), and a turnover of 124 trillion CNY, with an average daily open interest of 12.17 million lots. DCE ranked 9th worldwide in 2022 in terms of trading volume and 1st in China in terms of open interest, becoming a major futures market for agricultural products, plastics, coke, coal and iron ore in the world. DCE continues to perform the functions of price discovery, risk management, resource allocation and play an active role in building China’s one common market and global trade.

At the new stage of development, DCE will implement the new development concept and integrate with new development pattern. Orienting our services towards the real economy and aligning our innovation with market demand, we will focus on the three priorities: developing products, driving business with technology, and establishing ecosystems. By doing so, we seek to achieve the long-term goal of building a world-class derivatives exchange that integrates futures and physical, synergizes exchange and off-exchange, and connects domestic and overseas markets.
