Visiting CME Group

Come take a look at the histories of both the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME) and Chicago Board of Trade (CBOT), the city’s two most important exchanges, now merged to form a single entity, CME Group. The Visitor Centers are just a short walk from one another in downtown Chicago. Although the viewing galleries overlooking the trading floors are limited to academic and industry-related groups, all are encouraged to visit the lobby-level Visitor Centers at both CME Group locations.
