Notice

Summary

Cboe C2 Exchange is updating its fee schedule to match changes in FINRA’s annual system processing fee, which only applies during renewals and continuing education. This means traders and members will see adjusted fees starting now, keeping costs fair and clear. The change is effective immediately, so everyone should be ready for the new fee setup.

Analyzed Economic Effects

2 provisions identified: 0 benefits, 2 costs, 0 mixed.

Tiered Annual Processing Fee

If you are a registered person of a Trading Permit Holder (TPH) who is not also a FINRA member, the flat $70 annual FINRA System Processing Fee is replaced by a tiered schedule beginning in 2026: $70 for 1–5 securities regulators, $95 for 6–20, $110 for 21–40, and $125 for 41 or more. The Exchange lists these amounts on its Fee Schedule but does not collect or retain the fees; FINRA collects them via Web CRD.

Continuing Education Fee Increase

Beginning in 2026, the FINRA Regulatory Element continuing education fee listed on the Exchange's Fee Schedule increases from $18 to $25 per registration. The Exchange will mirror FINRA's $25 fee, and FINRA will collect the fee via Web CRD.
