On Monday, March 23, 2020, BOX Exchange LLC (“BOX”) will initiate its business continuity plan (“BCP”) and move, on a temporary basis, to fully electronic trading.
All-electronic trading will begin with Monday’s market open. The decision to temporarily close the BOX Trading Floor in Chicago represents a precautionary step to protect the health and well-being of employees and the BOX Trading Floor community in response to COVID-19.
BOX will continue to evaluate the reopening of the Trading Floor as more medical guidance regarding COVID-19 becomes available.
