Trading Technologies International (TT), the global provider of capital markets technology, plans to add access to Cboe equity index options on its platform starting early 2025. This development will allow TT’s institutional and professional trader clients to trade popular Cboe index products, including the S&P 500 Index (SPX), Cboe Volatility Index (VIX), Russell 2000 Index (RUT), and Mini SPX (XSP) options contracts.

This move expands TT’s existing offerings, which already include access to Cboe Futures Exchange (CFE) and Cboe FX. By integrating Cboe’s equity options, TT aims to strengthen its position in the fast-growing equity options trading market, providing clients with a seamless way to engage with some of the most traded index derivatives globally.

Alun Green, TT’s EVP Managing Director, Futures & Options, commented: “As we continue our expansion into new asset classes, U.S. equity options represent a significant part of the derivatives space. We’re eager to unlock new opportunities for our clients with Cboe’s hugely popular index options as a major first step in this diversification. Our clients want to participate via the powerful TT platform and trusted tools, and we’re seeing particularly strong interest from firms in the Asia-Pacific region, which are excited to access the markets through the after-hours session we’ll support.”

Catherine Clay, Global Head of Derivatives at Cboe Global Markets , added: “Our collaboration with TT is particularly timely as global demand for U.S. options continues to rise, with investors increasingly seeking exposure to the U.S. equity markets. By offering clients access to Cboe’s index options products, TT will further expand their customers’ trading capabilities, enabling access to some of the most liquid markets in the world – including SPX, RUT and VIX options – and the ability to efficiently gain and manage exposure to U.S. large and small cap equity markets and market volatility.”
