If the pictures of Lamborghinis lined up outside bitcoin conferences in Manhattan or jet skis bobbing in the crystal clear waters of Bermuda are anything to go by, working at leading cryptocurrency exchange and derivatives trading platform BitMEX was a sweet gig.
That was especially so for its first employee, Australian born and raised Greg Dwyer. Joining BitMEX in 2015, which grew into a $US3 billion ($3.9 billion) financial behemoth in just a few years, must have seemed like the opportunity of a lifetime for Dwyer. Until it all came crashing down last year.
New Mini VIX Future Product Impacts Cboe Global Markets 2020 Revenue
Posted on 02/06/2021
Cboe Global Markets, Inc. (Cboe: CBOE) recently reported financial results for the 2020 fourth quarter and full year.
Cboe Global Markets saw futures net revenue of US$ 21.5 million decreased US$ 9.4 million, or 30 percent, primarily due to a decline in net transaction fees. Net transaction and clearing fees decreased $10.1 million, or 39 percent, reflecting a 30 percent decrease in ADV and a 12 percent decline in revenues per contract (RPC). The revenues per contract decline was primarily due to the addition of Mini-VIX futures, which are one-tenth the size of the standard VIX futures and have a lower fee per contract. The RPC variance also reflects higher volume from corporate bond index futures and associated lead market maker incentives.
