Cboe Global Markets Inc. is returning to its roots in Chicago’s financial district with the opening of a new trading floor.

The company moved its Cboe Options Exchange into a remodeled space in the Chicago Board of Trade building. The 40,000-square-foot (3,716-square-meter) space, which opens Monday, gives market participants updated equipment and additional physical space to execute trades in the options market.
