Dear OMT Members,
we are organizing a tour of the Chicago Board Options Exchange (Cboe) as an off-program event during the next AOM Annual Meeting.
The tour will take place on 10 August 2018, 2-3.30pm. It includes 1-hour tour of the Cboe trading floor during active trading and ½-hour Q&A session.
If you're interested in joining us, just write to both (cc) Andrea Lagna (a.lagna@lboro.ac.uk) and Daniel Beunza (dbe.ioa@cbs.dk)
Please let us know by 10 April. Places are limited to a maximum of 50 people – first come, first served basis. The cost is $25 per person.
Cboe is one of the largest options markets in the world. It was the first exchange to list standardized options in 1973. Since then, it pioneered several financial innovations such as the Cboe Volatility Index and, more recently, Bitcoin futures. This tour is a great opportunity for OMT scholars to experience the fascinating world of derivatives trading in Chicago.
We look forward to seeing you there!
Andrea and Daniel
