ATTENTION! TWO NEW NYMEX EXCHANGES: NYMEX ECM AND NYMEX MTF

As previously announced, this summer NYMEX and LCH.Clearnet are launching a broad range of global energy products for trading on the CME Globex platform. NYMEX is offering a new and distinct slate of OTC and futures products for clearing through LCH.Clearnet through two new exchanges: NYMEX ECM and NYMEX MTF.

The initial slate will encompass the global benchmark oil contracts, including WTI, Brent and Gasoil, as well as key natural gas and electricity contracts. These new products will be cleared by LCH.Clearnet using existing and widely distributed clearing technology, thus optimizing operational efficiencies for market participants.

This historic alliance will deliver improved capital and operational efficiencies through wider execution capabilities, broader credit intermediation and margining benefits for customers and market participants.

More information on the arrangement and benefits for market participants is available at  www.nymexonlchclearnet.com.

Please note: The NYMEX ECM contracts require development to support trading of these unique products. Detailed development information is available in the NYMEX ECM and NYMEX MTF Products on CME Globex Client Impact Assessment. The complete lists of new products are available in the NYMEX ECM Snapshot and NYMEX MTF Snapshot.

These products are now available for customer testing in the New Release environment. A mock trading session will be held Saturday, June 28. More information will be available soon.


Both the cash and physically settled energy contracts are now available on the CME Globex electronic trading platform, around the clock. Contracts include Crude Oil, Heating Oil RBOB Gasoline, Natural gas, Northwest Europe Gasoil and Brent Crude.
