Anil Ambani's Reliance Money buys stake in HK exchange
First Indian firm to acquire a stake in an international exchange
Becomes the second largest shareholder in HKMEx
Reliance Money to get a seat on the HKMEx board
Mumbai, October 14, 2008: Reliance Money, part of the Reliance Anil Dhirubhai Ambani Group, has acquired a 15 per cent stake in Hong Kong Mercantile Exchange (HKMEx). With this holding, Reliance Money becomes the second-largest shareholder in the commodity exchange and will have a board membership. Reliance Money is the first Indian firm to acquire a stake in an international exchange.
"Even as Asia has emerged as a key market for global commodities, the region does not have a strong commodity exchange. We believe that our deal with HKMEx will help us capitalise on the growing demand for commodities in this region," said Mr. Sudip Bandyopadhyay, Director and CEO, Reliance Money.
Reliance Money has recently received approval from the FMC and Ministry of Consumer Affairs for acquiring 10 per cent stake in domestic National Multi-Commodity Exchange of India. It plans to up this stake to 26 per cent.
"We plan to build synergies between both the exchanges thereby leveraging on the growth potential of commodity trading in India, China and the rest of Asia," added Mr. Bandyopadhyay.
HKMEx proposes to start trading in the first quarter of 2009 and will kick-start its operations by offering dollar-denominated oil contracts. It would also diversify into other commodities going forward.

Enter Reliance: NMCE moves to Mumbai
AHMEDABAD: National Mutui-Commodity Exchange (NMCE) of India Ltd., the country's first online demutualised, multi-commodity exchange, has announced its plans to move its Corporate Office from Ahmedabad to Mumbai.
This announcement comes at the back of Reliance Money, India’s largest financial conglomerate and distribution house, agreeing to acquire up to 26 per cent stake in NMCE, subject to approval and clearances from regulatory authorities.
“With a renewed focus on growth, NMCE is aggressively looking at expanding its membership network and commodity base offered. We plan to not only launch newer commodities, but also plan to reach out to the huge investor base in the commodity arena through various new schemes and tie-ups,” said Mr. Sudip Bandopadhyay, CEO, Reliance Money and recently inducted Director on the NMCE Board.
Besides plans to move its corporate office to Mumbai, NMCE is also looking at recruitments at various levels to further strengthen its management.
"The decision to move our Corporate Office from Ahmedabad to Mumbai is a part of our overall strategy to revamp the entire working of the exchange. Though being the country's first online demutualised, multi-commodity exchange, we have missed out by not being present in the financial capital of the country,” said Mr. Kailash Gupta, Managing Director, NMCE.
NMCE is the country's first online de-mutualised, multi-commodity exchange with nationwide reach. It not only revived futures trade electronically in the commodities in India after a gap of 41 years but also integrated the centuries old commodity market with the latest technology.
