TMX Group Announces Agreement to Acquire Cboe Australia and Cboe Canada

We are pleased to announce that TMX Group has entered into an agreement to acquire the Canadian and Australian equity businesses of Cboe Global Markets. This important move is designed to enhance the experience of our issuers and market participants by creating a more efficient, liquid, and globally integrated capital markets ecosystem.

Enhancing Liquidity

Market fragmentation has long imposed a burden of high costs and operational hurdles, particularly for smaller dealers and issuers navigating a patchwork of venues. This acquisition directly addresses these challenges by lowering data and connectivity barriers and unifying liquidity. For our clients, this translates into tighter spreads, superior execution, and a more equitable marketplace. We remain deeply committed to consulting with independent dealers and smaller issuers to ensure our evolution continues to protect and prioritize your interests.

Leading Global Hub for Mining and Energy Transition

The acquisition of Cboe Australia is a transformative step in our global growth strategy. By uniting the world's two leading mining and energy transition financing hubs, we are creating a premier international corridor for resource and technology firms. This expansion allows us to offer our issuers unparalleled reach across key financing and trading jurisdictions.

Investing in the success of your listing remains our top priority, and this milestone strengthens that promise. We are excited to embark on this journey with you, using our expanded global reach to unlock new opportunities for collaboration and innovation.
