CME Group is a derivatives exchange: it charges per contract and earns more the more restless markets become.
The company organises trading in futures and options on interest rates, equity indices, currencies, energy and agricultural commodities. Income is a fee per contract, so volatility is not a risk to it but a raw material: the more rates and prices move, the more actively participants hedge.
A second, less obvious source is interest on margin collateral: participants keep deposits at the exchange, and at high rates those balances earn meaningfully. A third is selling market data, a service with almost no marginal cost.
The barrier to entry is very high: liquidity attracts liquidity, and moving open interest to another venue is practically impossible — which is why derivatives exchanges are historically monopolies in their own contracts. CME pays a regular dividend plus an annual variable distribution.
