Price Quotation Contract IMM Index = 100 minus R

R = three-month London interbank offered rate for spot settlement on 3rd Wednesday of contract month.

E.g., a price quote of 97.45 signifies a deposit rate of 2.55 percent per annum. One interest rate basis point = 0.01 price points = $25 per contract.
Trading Hours SUN - FRI: 5:00 p.m. - 4:00 p.m. CT
