The futures exchange is the place to buy and sell futures contracts and the core of the futures market. It is a non-profit organization, but its non-profit only means that the exchange itself does not conduct trading activities, and it does not mean that it does not attach importance to interest accounting.
The Exchange is also a financially independent, profit-making institution, which aims at providing traders with an open, fair and just trading place and effective supervision services and obtaining reasonable economic benefits, mainly including membership fee income, transaction fee income, information service income and other income. Its set of institutional rules endows the whole futures market with a self-management mechanism, thus making the principle of "openness, fairness and justice" in futures trading possible.
