Cboe To Sell Canada, Australia Equities Units To TMX Group For $300 Mln

Cboe Global Markets agreed to sell its Canadian and Australian equities exchanges, Cboe Canada and Cboe Australia, to TMX Group for $300 million. The transaction is a portfolio realignment and could modestly improve capital allocation, but the news is primarily strategic rather than operational. The deal is notable for Cboe and TMX, though it is unlikely to have broad market impact.
