Description of Business
|
CME Group enables clients to trade futures, options, cash and over-the-counter
(OTC) markets, optimize portfolios, and analyze data -- empowering market
participants worldwide to efficiently manage risk and capture opportunities.
GENERAL DEVELOPMENT OF BUSINESS
CME was founded in 1898 as a not-for-profit corporation. CME demutualized in
2000, and in 2002 its parent company completed its initial public offering of
its Class A common stock (NASDAQ: CME). Our acquisitions include our merger with
CBOT Holdings, Inc. in 2007, our acquisition of NYMEX and COMEX in 2008 and our
acquisition of NEX Group plc (NEX) in November 2018. Our combination with NEX
creates a leading, client-centric, global markets company, generating
significant efficiencies across futures, cash and OTC products for market
participants seeking to lower their cost of trading and better manage risk.
