--- title: "CME Group: Business Model" description: "CME Group revenue by product line from its fiscal 2025 Form 10-K, with each part's share, growth and profitability explained." canonical: https://www.getswoopr.com/stocks/companies/cme-group/business-model/ source: "Swoopr Investment: https://www.getswoopr.com" --- # CME Group: Business Model & Revenue Engine ## Direct Answer CME Group reports revenue across 3 product and service lines in its fiscal 2025 Form 10-K. Clearingandtransactionfees is the largest, with $5.3 billion of revenue (81% of the total), followed by Market Data at $803 million (12%). ## How Does CME Group Make Money? Clearingandtransactionfees supplies 81% of revenue, so CME Group's results move mostly with that one business; the others matter more for diversification than for the headline number. Between fiscal 2024 and 2025, Market Data grew fastest (+13.1%) and Other Revenue slowest (+1.1%), so the revenue mix tilts toward Market Data while that gap lasts. | Product or service | FY2025 revenue | FY2024 revenue | Share of revenue | Change | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Clearingandtransactionfees | $5.3 billion | $5.0 billion | 81.0% | 5.9% | | Market Data | $803 million | $710 million | 12.3% | 13.1% | | Other Revenue | $436 million | $432 million | 6.7% | 1.1% | ![Bar chart of CME Group revenue by product line for fiscal 2025: Clearingandtransactionfees 81.0%, Market Data 12.3%, Other Revenue 6.7%.](https://www.getswoopr.com/images/charts/cme-group-business-model-segment-mix.webp) *CME Group revenue by product line as a share of total revenue, from the table above.

Segment definitions are management's choice and change when a company reorganizes, in which case it restates prior years in the next filing, so a multi-year comparison should use the figures from a single filing. Revenue shows where sales come from, not where profit or cash is earned: a small segment can carry most of the margin. ## Where These Numbers Come From Every figure on this page is a value CME Group reported in the segment note and revenue disclosures of its Form 10-K filed February 26, 2026 (accession 0001156375-26-000009), read from the SEC's Financial Statement Data Sets. The prior-year column is the comparative figure from that same filing, so it reflects any restatement for a change in segments. Category names are the company's own XBRL labels, lightly reformatted for reading. Rows that only total other rows (for example a "Products" line beside the individual products) are left out so nothing is counted twice. This page is educational and describes reported history for fiscal 2025; it is not a forecast or a recommendation. ## Frequently Asked Questions ### What are CME Group's main products and services?
