Sydney Futures Exchange floor



While visiting Australia last week I passed by where the Sydney Futures Exchange floor once was in downtown Sydney. The SFE, founded as the Sydney Greasy Wool Futures Exchange in 1960, went fully electronic in 1999. I don't know what's become of the former floor itself but as the building has an anchor tenant in the electronic trading powerhouse Optiver, it wouldn't surprise me if they took over the former floor facilities.

Some photos of the floor when it functioned are shared on an SFE Trading Floor Reunion Facebook page.
