As a reminder, in the next few weeks, NYMEX and LCH.Clearnet will launch a broad range of global energy products for trading on CME Globex®∕. This notice contains key information concerning this important event, including the new ticker test dates that have just been added at the end of this notice.
These product offerings are comprised of OTC and futures products for clearing through LCH.Clearnet through two new exchanges: NYMEX ECM and NYMEX MTF. Initially, these offerings will include the global benchmark oil contracts, including WTI, Brent and Gasoil, as well as key natural gas and electricity contracts.
