The Chicago Board Options Exchange Holdings (CBOE, NASDAQ: CBOE), one of the biggest operators of the US equity options market, has released its trading volumes for the month ending June 2016, highlighted by a sizable growth across the board, according to a CBOE statement.

During June 2016, CBOE Holdings reported a total trading volume for options contracts on Chicago Board Options Exchange, C2 Options Exchange, and futures contracts on CBOE Futures Exchange of 114.0 million, climbing 27.5% MoM from 89.4 million contracts in May 2016. The exchange also saw an average daily volume (ADV) of 5.2 million contracts per day, which was higher by a margin of 20.9% MoM from 4.3 million contracts per day in May 2016.

The steadfast growth in volumes can be partially explained by a surge in futures activity towards the end of the month at the CBOE – the exchange saw a record volume in non-US trading hours on June 24 with 235,141 contracts, following the aftermath of the Brexit vote.
