ICE Reports January 2014 Volumes

Date 05/02/2014

IntercontinentalExchange Group (NYSE: ICE), the leading global network of exchanges and clearing houses, today reported exchange traded volumes for January 2014.

ICE’s January average daily volume (ADV) for global derivatives was 10.4 million contracts, a decrease of 8% compared to January 2013.

  • Total commodities ADV increased 15% driven by strength in natural gas and agriculture contract volume.
  • Total financial ADV declined 24% primarily due to lower volatility in European interest rates relative to the strong volumes in January 2013 as a result of the long term repo operation (LTRO) repayment. This was partially offset by a 20% increase in equity index ADV driven by volatility in the equity markets.

January U.S. cash equities ADV declined 2% and European cash equities ADV increased 22% from the prior January.
