Patsystems is to offer connectivity to the CBOE Futures Exchange (CFE). The connectivity aims to provide Patsystems’ customers with access to all CFE products, including futures on the CBOE Volatility Index (VIX), CBOE DJIA Volatility Index (VXD), CBOE S&P 500 Three- and Twelve-Month Variance, and CBOE S&P 500 BuyWrite Index.
“We are extremely pleased to offer our customers connectivity to the CFE,” says Patrick Kenny, the Managing Director of Patsystems North America. “The decision to connect was led by customer demand and those customers can now take advantage of this extension of Patsystems’ global reach.”
“CFE has seen a remarkable increase in volume as volatility has become a globally traded asset class and demand for exchange-traded volatility products has surged,” adds Andrew Lowenthal, the Managing Director of the CFE. “Connecting CFE to Patsystems’ widely-used and highly-regarded system will allow us to broaden our reach to the volatility trading community and will provide Patsystems’ clients access to the unique products available only on the CBOE Futures Exchange.”
