IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT!

Beginning today, all future notices published by Client Management/Market Data Operations will be available on the new Market Data page of CME’s web site at www.cme.com.

You will now receive emails that contain links to our notices, instead of receiving emails with the notices attached. If the notice topic is of interest to you, simply click-on the link, which will take you the Market Data page, where you can read and print the notice.

All notices that are sent from Client Management/Market Data Operations will be listed in the market data notifications section and will continue to retain the numbering scheme of Q200_-XX or QVC200_-XX. (Notices published by our Information Products Management group are listed above in the Market Data section, with the numbering scheme IPM 200_-XX.)
