Eurex, a leading derivatives exchange under Deutsche Börse Group, will introduce futures contracts on the MSCI Korea Net Total Return Index starting July 14, 2025. The offering provides institutional investors with cost-efficient access to South Korea's equity market, which represents nearly 11% of the MSCI Emerging Markets Index.

The launch follows the establishment of a clearing LINK between Eurex and Korea Exchange (KRX). Unlike existing KOSPI derivatives favored by retail traders, these USD-denominated contracts target asset managers, banks, and institutional investors seeking diversified exposure to Korean large- and mid-cap stocks.

South Korea ranks as the fourth-largest constituent in the MSCI EM Index, underscoring its strategic importance for global portfolios. Eurex becomes the sole offshore derivatives venue offering such Korean index exposure, eliminating the need for multiple trading platforms.
