Cboe Global Markets is a leading market infrastructure operator that designs, develops and supports trading across multiple asset classes. Headquartered in Chicago, the company provides trading services in equity, options, futures, foreign exchange and exchange‐traded products. Cboe is perhaps best known for operating the Chicago Board Options Exchange (CBOE), the first U.S. exchange to list standardized, exchange‐traded stock options in 1973.
Over time, Cboe has expanded its footprint through organic innovation and strategic acquisitions. Its global network includes Cboe BZX, BYX, EDGX and EDGA equities exchanges in the U.S., Cboe Options and Futures Exchanges, as well as pan‐European venues such as Cboe Europe Equities and Cboe Europe Derivatives. The company also serves Asia Pacific through its Cboe Asia operations and has made inroads in clearing via its acquisition of EuroCCP.
In addition to trading platforms, Cboe offers market data products, clearing and settlement services, and proprietary index licensing. Its Cboe Volatility Index (VIX) remains a benchmark gauge of U.S. equity market volatility. Through its data offerings and indices, Cboe supports institutional investors, brokers and asset managers with real‐time analytics, risk management tools and benchmarks for structured products.
Under the leadership of Executive Chairman and CEO Edward T. Tilly, Cboe has pursued a strategy of geographic diversification and technology‐driven growth. The company continues to invest in electronic trading capabilities, risk controls and regulatory compliance, aiming to deliver transparent, resilient and innovative market solutions across the globe.
