Wolverine Trading was established in 1994. The two founding partners had cultivated their derivatives expertise at O'Connor & Associates, a global leader that specialized in options trading.
Wolverine originally started as an equity index option market making firm. Over time, Wolverine has added specialists to its market making capabilities. It has also expanded its operations into new products and exchanges. We now trade equities, equity options, equity indexes, equity index options, equity index futures, and equity index futures options. We also created an off-floor operation to manage our equity index portfolio and to construct statistical arbitrage trading opportunities.
Our exchange presence includes: AMEX, BOX, BORSA ITALIANA, CBOE, CBOT, CHX, CME, EUREX, ISE, LIFFE, MONTREAL, PHLX, PCX , STOCKHOLM, and XETRA. Today, Wolverine Trading has over 200 employees and is one of the largest equity and equity index trading firms in the world. We trade only proprietary capital; we have no outside investors or customers.
Wolverine is headquartered in Chicago and has offices in New York, San Francisco, Philadelphia and London.
