In 2006, the reach of this program has extended again through efforts to reach more broadly into Europe and to also attract new trading volume from Asia. Since 2004 the program has expanded from nine of the largest U.S. trading firms to include 21 trading firms worldwide, including European firms in the United Kingdom, Italy, Switzerland, Holland, Spain, Denmark, and the Czech Republic. <\/p>\n

CME<\/span> has 10 hedge funds that trade as inactive clearing members that are subject to financial reporting requirements and obtain member trading rates. They clear trades through full CME<\/span> clearing firms. <\/p>\n

Of those 10 inactive clearing members, five hedge funds have CME<\/span> Family of Funds memberships that may receive member trading rates without the need for each fund in the family to become an inactive clearing member. CME<\/span> also provides plans under which hedge funds can be corporate members, such that they are provided certain privileges of membership, including volume incentives. <\/p>\n

The new Hedge Fund and Broker Services group will be assisted by CME<\/span>\u00c3\u00a2\u00e2\u201a\u00ac\u00e2\u201e\u00a2s Europe and Asia offices and will also include Kelly Brown, Director, Hedge Funds and Mark Omens, Associate Director, Broker Services in Chicago. <\/p>\n
