Cboe Global Markets (CBOE) has launched the VIXTLT Index, a new volatility measure for the U.S. Treasury market. This index, which began publishing on August 12, 2024, is designed to track 30-day expected volatility in real-time, similar to the VIX Index for equity markets. The VIXTLT Index is calculated using options on the iShares® 20+ Year Treasury Bond ETF (TLT), a highly liquid fund focused on long-term Treasury bonds.

This new index adds to Cboe's growing suite of volatility indices and derivatives-based offerings. It provides market participants with a tool to monitor expected volatility in the Treasury market, complementing the VIX Index for equities. By observing both indices, investors can gain insights into how volatility in these two major asset classes interacts during different market conditions. The VIXTLT Index is available in basis point measure, offering a familiar metric for fixed income market participants.

Cboe Global Markets (CBOE) has announced plans to launch options on Cboe Volatility Index (VIX) futures, expected to begin trading on October 14, 2024, subject to regulatory review. These new options will be CFTC-regulated and based on front-month VIX futures, allowing a wider range of market participants to manage or gain exposure to U.S. equity market volatility. The move aims to expand Cboe's VIX complex and address global demand for hedging tools, especially with the upcoming U.S. election, which has historically been a significant volatility catalyst.

The new options will be European-style and physically settle into front-month VIX futures. They are designed to complement existing VIX Index options, providing more choice in expiration dates and enabling more granular hedging strategies. Cboe expects these options to appeal to a broad group of users, including Commodity Trading Advisors and customers of Futures Commission Merchants.
