Home of the Chicago Stock Exchange, the Chicago Board Options Exchange, and other major options and futures financial exchanges, Chicago is among the world's leading financial centers. In 2007, there was a historic merger between the Chicago Board of Trade and the Chicago Mercantile Exchange - both pioneering innovators in the creation of financial products to manage risk. Many large multinational securities, futures firms and banks have offices in the city. Steps away from the city's financial district, FMRM and Banking MBA students have easy access to a wealth of resources and career-building experiences. This advantage enables the students and faculty to keep up with new developments, interact with leading experts in the industry and become acquainted with cutting-edge developments in the field, both academic and applied. UIC's International Center for Futures and Derivatives has a mission that encompasses fostering research and innovation, leveraging existing connections with China, promoting education on derivatives and futures and preparing students to work in the industry.
