ICE Reports Record Total Futures and Options Open Interest of 84.5 Million Contracts

Total Open Interest +8% y/y

Intercontinental Exchange, Inc. (NYSE:ICE), a leading global provider of data, technology, and market infrastructure, today announced record open interest of approximately 84.5 million contracts on May 21, 2021, surpassing the previous record set on March 12, 2020.

This record depth of liquidity across ICE’s markets is being driven by a broad range of products including:

  • Open interest across ICE’s global environmental complex is up 13% year-over-year (“y/y”) across futures and options, reflecting the importance of ICE’s leading environmental markets to price climate risk;
  • Interest Rate futures and options open interest is up 32% y/y. Open interest in Sterling and SONIA futures and options is up 56% y/y and more than 200% y/y, respectively; Euribor open interest is up 5% y/y; and open interest in ICE Gilt futures and options, the highly liquid market benchmark for UK Government Bonds, is up 47% y/y; and
  • Open interest in futures and options on FTSE Equity Indices is up 8% y/y.
