    GENERAL: NZX: INTL FCStone Financial Inc accredited in Derivatives Market
    
    NZX is pleased to announce that INTL FCStone Financial Inc. has been
    accredited as a Derivatives Trading & Advising Participant and a General
    Clearing Participant for the NZX Dairy Derivatives Market. INTL FCStone
    becomes the second US based participant to gain full membership status since
    NZX was granted authorisation as a Foreign Board of Trade by the Commodity
    Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) in 2014.
    
    NZX is pleased to welcome INTL FCStone to the market and sees this as an
    important milestone, providing greater access for those looking to trade on
    NZX, particularly out of the US.
    
    INTL FCStone has long been a supporter of the NZX Global Dairy Derivatives
    Market through its Australian entity, INTL FCStone Pty. Ltd., having been a
    market participant since 2010. A US based membership will create a presence
    in the well-established US commodity trading market and further enhance the
    liquidity of NZX's dairy derivatives market.
    
    INTL FCStone's Vice President Foods Group, Robert Chesler, commented: "NZX's
    dairy derivatives products have proven themselves as increasingly useful risk
    management products in the global dairy sector. INTL FCStone's presence in
    the commodity space throughout the US puts us in a strong position to further
    develop this market by offering access to our customers within the US and
    further abroad that are interested in trading on NZX."
    
    NZX CEO Tim Bennett commented: "Our dairy derivatives market has demonstrated
    remarkable growth over the past 18 months highlighting strong interest from
    end users looking for risk management tools in the global dairy industry.
    INTL FCStone's accreditation allows easier access to the market for customers
    based in the US in particular, as well as its customers throughout the world,
    supporting our growth strategy for this market."
    
    NZX Dairy Derivatives experienced volume growth of 175% in 2014 and continues
    to experience increasing participation in the market, with volumes in the
    third quarter of 2015 showing growth of 125% over the same period last year.
