The prestigious journal Review of Futures Markets, originally published by the Chicago Board of Trade, resumed publication with the Summer 2005 issue. Published in cooperation with the Institute for Financial Markets, the quarterly journal publishes peer-reviewed, editor selected articles that expand the literature of futures, options, and derivatives research. Selected articles presented at the annual Futures Research Symposium are also published. The goal in publishing RFM is to provide an academic research journal that brings a unique balance of theory and practice to the derivatives trading and futures market industry.

The Chicago Board of Trade has promoted academic research for the past 50 years by sponsoring annual research seminars in the United States, Europe, and in the Asia-Pacific region. The Chicago Board of Trade Educational Research Foundation's Research Symposium was established to advance the development, knowledge and use of futures and options markets. Prior symposia have attracted academics and practitioners from around the globe.
