In 2008, China's futures market underwent correction and reinforcement after several years' fast growth. Despite the impact of the financial crisis, futures trading hit 7.5 billion yuan, with a YOY rise of 87.5%. The futures market continued to play a role. Substantive progress was made in opening up, and infrastructure development was enhanced, laying a solid foundation for the further regulation of the market.
