VKOSPI Futures Update

According to a recent article in Risk magazine Korea's Financial Services Commission is planning to introduce volatility futures on VKOSPI index sometime before the end of the year. It has been for quite sometime in the planning stage ( I first wrote about it 2.5 years ago ) but the product may finally come to the market. Given lack of liquidity in other Asian volatility futures I am pessimistic about the product attracting volume.
