About Singapore Commodity Exchange
The Singapore Commodity Exchange (SICOM), founded in 1992, was Singapore's primary exchange for rubber futures and agricultural commodity derivatives. SICOM operated key rubber contracts including Ribbed Smoked Sheets Grade 3 (RSS3) and Technically Specified Rubber Grade 20 (TSR20), establishing Singapore as a global benchmark price-setting centre for Southeast Asian natural rubber. SGX (Singapore Exchange) acquired SICOM in 2014, integrating its commodity derivatives into the broader SGX platform, where SICOM rubber contracts continue to trade under the SGX Group umbrella.
