- The NASDAQ:CME will now offer six FX monthly contracts to go along with its slate of quarterly offerings. They're scheduled to begin trading on Feb. 27.
- The six currency pairs are AUD, GBP, CAD, EUR, JPY (all vs. the USD), and EUR/GBP.
- CME's Paul Houston: "The launch of FX monthly futures is in response to feedback from global customers who want to trade FX futures for the capital efficiencies they bring but require increased granularity to meet their hedging needs."
