Uncompromising Financial Strength
The Kansas City Board of Trade has a solid financial base
that keeps getting stronger as the exchange grows.
Marketable or liquid investments account for over 88% of shareholder
equity and exceed liabilities 5.6 to one.
Shareholder equity serves both to finance growth and to protect
against the unlikely default of a member firm.
The assets of the exchange dominate liabilities seven-fold, illustrating
the exchange's continued commitment to a sound financial base.
