Fees for Clearing and Trading CME Group Contracts

At CME Group, we offer proprietary trading customers a fully disclosed, competitive fee structure for trading global benchmark products available at our four exchanges — CME, CBOT, NYMEX and COMEX. In addition, a special class of memberships and incentive programs, designed specifically for proprietary trading firms, can further reduce your trading and clearing fees. Fees for clearing and trading CME Group contracts vary by product, volume traded, membership(s) in the designated contract market, and trading venue (electronically or on the floors). To help you determine which program(s) best suit your firm’s needs and objectives, we’ve developed this guide to compare the options available.
