What has changed since our last report

According to the CME Group announcement, BRL futures reached a daily record of 498,498 contracts. The notional value was R$49.8 billion, or about USD 9.2 billion, and volume was eleven times the year-to-date average. The previous record was 191,325 contracts on September 28.

CME said clients used the contracts to manage currency risk outside Brazilian trading hours. USD 2.5 billion in notional value traded before the onshore market opened. Paul Houston, CME's global head of FX products, said the combination of liquidity across time zones and USD-denominated contracts is supporting price discovery beyond the domestic session.

Operating context remains broad

The new FX record adds to the record third-quarter activity already reported by CME. Average daily volume reached 29.4 million contracts in the quarter, while market data revenue rose 20 percent year over year to USD 243.1 million. The company reported double-digit volume growth across all six major asset classes.
