With this fee reduction, you are instantly eligible for a reduced $.10 premium over the existing (account-based) transaction fees for long-dated privately-negotiated transactions – CME products only (Block eligible futures).
For example, the current CME GLOBEX fee for a member executing a Euro FX Option contract is $0.25 per side. The new ex-pit fee for a member would be $0.35 for any Block Trade, with a tenor equal to or beyond the fourth quarterly contract, down from $1.75.
