Weather affects economies worldwide, having a serious impact on revenues and earnings. Until now, there was nothing a business could do about its weather exposure. To enable businesses to hedge their financial risks related to weather, CME Group developed the first exchange-traded, centrally cleared weather futures and options. These tools offer the same opportunities for risk management that other futures and options offer for hedging risk in interest rates, equities, commodities and foreign exchange.
Currently, the weather market has evolved to the point where hedge funds and other non-commercial traders also trade CME Weather products to absorb risk in exchange for possible profit on weather variations.
We now offer weather contracts on 42 cities throughout the world: 24 cities in the United States, 10 in Europe, six in Canada and two in Japan. In addition, CME Group lists products used to hedge risk associated with hurricanes, frost and snowfall.
