CME Group Announces Launch Of Beef Trim Contracts CME Group announced plans to launch two types of Beef Trim contracts, which will help the agriculture industry manage risk associated with the key ingredient in producing hamburgers. Trading is expected to start on July 20, 2026, pending regulatory review. The financially-settled 90% and 50% Lean Beef Trim futures and options contracts track products used to produce high-volume ground beef. In the physical market, 90% and 50% represent the lean percentages for beef trim relative to the fat. By offering both 90% and 50% lean beef trim specifications, market participants can now precisely manage the input costs tied to popular retail blend ratios, bridging the gap between live cattle prices and the ground beef they ultimately sell. Beef trim prices have been highly volatile, and until now market participants have had limited tools to hedge that exposure directly. A dedicated futures contract improves price transparency and discovery while giving packers, processors and end users a more effective way to manage price risk. CME Group achieved record annual average daily volume (ADV) of 1,900,000 contracts for Agricultural products in Fiscal year 2025 along with record annual ADV for Live Cattle futures and options (111,718) and Feeder Cattle futures and options (31,545 contracts). The new 90% and 50% Lean Beef Trim futures and options contracts will be listed and subject to the rules of CME. Annuncio • Jun 30

CME-Fixed Income Clearing Corporation cross-margining arrangements have been available to common clearing members with respect to their proprietary accounts since 2004, with significant enhancements to the arrangement announced in 2024.
