(Reuters) - Futures exchange operator CME Group Inc reported a near 24% rise in first-quarter profit on Wednesday, helped by market volatility spurred by the Russia-Ukraine war and as investors hedged against rising interest rates.
Net income attributable to the company rose to $711 million, or $1.95 per share, in the quarter ended March 31, from $574.4 million, or $1.60 per share, a year earlier.
