CHX ANNOUNCES NEW FEE STRUCTURE
Chicago, January 7th, 2010 – The Chicago Stock Exchange (CHX) announced today that it has implemented, effective January 4th, a tiered fee structure designed to reward its most active customers and offering incentive for firms to direct additional business to the CHX.
The new fee structure applies to matching engine trading activity in stocks priced over $1.00 executed during the regular trading session and will allow customers to receive the highest rebates and pay the lowest take fees when executing in excess of 5,000,000 shares of average daily provide volume on the CHX. Those customers will receive .0030/share for providing liquidity in Tape A and C issues and will be charged only .0028/share when taking volume in those issues. The top rates for Tape B will be a .0032/share credit when providing and a fee of .0028/share when accessing liquidity.
“We have implemented a fee structure which will reward loyal active customers while providing a strong basic plan for customers who access CHX on a less regular basis,” stated CHX CEO Dave Herron. “Customer feedback was instrumental in creating this new structure and we feel that it accommodates a wide array of users.”
