Euronext will launch trading in its planned durum wheat futures on Jan. 3, the market operator said on its website.
Euronext had previously targeted a launch in the fourth quarter of this year.
The durum contract will begin a push by Euronext into cash-settled grain futures as a way to expand its commodity business currently focused on futures offering physical delivery.
In preparation for the launch, Euronext has begun publishing on its website indicative prices for durum forward positions, starting with March 2022.
