Phupinder Gill – Chief Executive Officer
Good morning and thank you for joining us this morning. I am going to highlight CME Group’s third quarter and then turn it over to Jamie to review our financials. Our focus this morning is about what’s new and relevant during the quarter. We’ve made some good traction since our last earnings call, in terms of the core business and expanding our OTC clearing activity. Within our core futures complex, third quarter average daily volume was up 11% compared to the same period last year, driven primarily by continued strong growth in interest rates and metals. We drove strong growth in electronic trading volumes outside the U.S. in our entire business.
