Forex Futures An exchange-traded contract to buy or sell a specified amount of a given currency at a specified price on a specific date in the future. All forex futures are written with a specific termination date, at which point delivery of the currency must occur, unless an offsetting trade is made to counteract the initial position. Notes: Forex futures serve two primary purposes as financial instruments. First, they can be used by companies or sole proprietors to remove the exchange rate risk inherent in cross-border transactions. Second, they can be used by investors to speculate and profit from currency exchange rate fluctuations. |

| The launch of CME FX on Reuters paves the way for more dynamic and efficient markets as the first major linkage between sell-side traders in the interbank FX market and electronic CME FX futures markets, where hedge funds and other major buy-side participants play a major role. We are thrilled that so many of the world's leading financial institutions not only recognise the potential of gaining direct access to CME's FX futures markets via their Reuters Dealing 3000 terminals, but are willing to devote their own time and resources to help test our systems and ensure a successful launch of this growth initiative. |
