Discontinuation of the publication FORTS_LIST.TXT

Dear MOEX clients,

Currently, the Moscow Exchange regularly publishes a file containing automated processing data on contracts and their specifications for the Derivatives Market on the FTP server.
File link: https://ftp.moex.com/pub/info/stats/forts/FORTS_LIST.TXT

Due to the centralization of machine-readable data distribution through the Moscow Exchange's Information and Statistical Service (ISS), we plan to discontinue the redundant distribution channel for Derivatives Market contract data and stop publishing the FORTS_LIST.TXT file by December 8, 2025.

Information about Derivatives Market instruments and their descriptions can be obtained using the following ISS API methods:

• https://iss.moex.com/iss/engines/futures/markets/forts/securities
• https://iss.moex.com/iss/engines/futures/markets/options/securities

Descriptions of fields in ISS are available at:

• https://iss.moex.com/iss/engines/futures/markets/forts/securities/columns
• https://iss.moex.com/iss/engines/futures/markets/options/securities/columns

Daily updated reference data for all instruments on the Equity, Derivatives, and Currency Markets are provided in the Reference Data product:

If you are unable to discontinue use of the FORTS_LIST.TXT file due to internal operational reasons, please contact us at data@moex.com by October 31, 2025.
