Cboe Global Markets Completes Sale of Australian Exchange to TMX Group

Key Facts

In a move reflecting the ongoing restructuring of global exchange assets, Cboe Global Markets has completed the sale of its Australian exchange operations to TMX Group. According to reports, this transaction represents a strategic international expansion for the Canadian-based TMX Group into the Australian market, while serving as a strategic realignment for Cboe's global business portfolio.

The deal concludes as the Australian market navigates shifting economic indicators, with market data showing annual inflation in Australia easing to 3.9% as of July 2026. The divestment is viewed as having an incremental impact on Cboe's total revenue, while providing TMX Group with a significant new foothold in the Asia-Pacific region.

Looking ahead, market participants in Australia are monitoring upcoming building permits data scheduled for July 30, 2026, to gauge the health of the housing sector.
