Talk:Chicago Mercantile Exchange

message: The name of the company has changed and so the title of the article referring to that company should change. See Citigroup, formerly known as Citibank for an earlier example of this change. The company's website makes this distinction clear.
Alternatively, we can put this and the CBOT in a new article called CME Group, as the two organizations remain distinct subsidiaries (it seems) held by a holding group. That way we can focus on the holding group's aspects (and really, the the actual company) while this article would become less important -- a subarticle CME Group. The stock ticker for CME Group needs to be attached to the article CME Group regardless. OptimistBen 01:39, 1 December 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: It seems to me that this article is primarily about the exchange, not the company that owns it, so I don't think moving this article would be good. I would just write a new article about the holding company at CME Group and any CME-specific info from here and the CBOT article can be cut and pasted to it. Recury 18:51, 3 December 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: A move proposal was listed at Wikipedia:Requested moves suggesting that the title of this page be changed from "Chicago Mercantile Exchange" to "CME Group", but there is no consensus for the move at this time. Dekimasuよ! 00:44, 6 December 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Actually, Citigroup's former name was Citicorp, not Citibank. (To be really specific, Citigroup is the result of a merger between Travelers Group and Citicorp.) Citibank is a subsidiary with its own Wikipedia article. --JHP (talk) 04:06, 24 May 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Requested Move

message: The New York Mercantile Exchange article has a list of the commodities traded on it. It would be nice if this article had a list of the commodities and other financial instruments traded on the CME. --JHP (talk) 04:13, 24 May 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Commodities traded?

message: * The umbrella holding company is CME Group Inc. as you can see from a recent filing with the SEC: http://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1156375/000119312508186903/d8k.htm -- Further, the subsidiary, which this page is about, is simply Chicago Mercantile Exchange. (The case could be made that it is Chicago Mercantile Exchange, Inc.)

thread_title:  CME Globex 

message: Hello Wikipedia editors. I have a few updates to propose for this article, starting with the infobox. 
The Chicago Mercantile Exchange is a subsidiary company and thus the Key people and Revenue infobox categories don't seem appropriate, as they convey to readers that Chicago Mercantile Exchange is the parent company. 
To be clear, Terrence A. Duffy is the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of CME Group, rather than the Chicago Mercantile Exchange. Bryan Durkin, the other key person listed, is a past president of CME Group (not the Chicago Mercantile Exchange), but has not been since 2020. 
Revenue for the Chicago Mercantile Exchange flows into the CME Group, so again it doesn't make sense to list Revenue as a category here. 
The infoboxes for all of the other CME Group subsidiaries (Chicago Board of Trade, Kansas City Board of Trade, New York Mercantile Exchange, S&P Dow Jones Indices) except for one (NEX Group) do not feature these categories, and the NEX Group article does not appear to have been substantially updated since the company was acquired in 2018. (The infobox figures all come from 2017.) 
I have a conflict of interest as I work for CME Group, so I won't be making these changes myself. I am hoping, though, that editors can review this request and then remove the Key people and Revenue categories. Thank you. Lbischel (talk) 20:46, 16 September 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: Not done for now:  Could you provide sourcing please? Thank you. PK650 (talk) 02:40, 22 September 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: Thank you for looking into this, PK650. The article infobox currently classifies the Chicago Mercantile Exchange as a subsidiary, a fact confirmed by this SEC filing and this CME Group governance document and reflected in press coverage from the New York Times and Reuters. Please let me know if you have any other questions. Lbischel (talk) 21:53, 22 September 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: Thank you, but I still am not understanding any actual requests. Please format them A to B if possible. PK650 (talk) 09:15, 23 September 2022 (UTC)

text: I see what you mean, thank you for clarifying. Would you know who the CME CEO is? I'd be happy to change it. Same goes for revenue, otherwise I can just remove both, as they're unsourced anyway. PK650 (talk) 04:15, 29 September 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: Thank you for the response, PK650. The Chicago Mercantile Exchange does not have a separate CEO in the way that some subsidiary companies (like Instagram) do, which is why I think the best move would be to just eliminate both categories (Key people and Revenue) from the infobox entirely. It does make sense to note in the body of the article that Terrence A. Duffy is the CEO of the parent company, but it seems confusing to include that detail in the infobox absent important context about the corporate structure.

replies: text: Thank you for the edits so far, PK650. I wanted to check if you were still comfortable with the idea of eliminating the Key people from the infobox entirely? I saw that Duffy's name has been removed, but Bryan Durkin remains, though he's no longer President of CME Group, so he should be removed, too. Lbischel (talk) 16:11, 7 November 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: Sure. Sorry for not getting back to you sooner. PK650 (talk) 03:14, 8 November 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: No worries at all, PK650, I completely understand. Your update looks good to me. Thanks! Lbischel (talk) 23:29, 17 November 2022 (UTC)
