History

edit

Jeffrey Sprecher was a developer of power stations who saw a need for a seamless market in natural gas.[2] In the late 1990s, Sprecher acquired Continental Power Exchange, Inc. with the objective of developing an Internet-based platform to provide a more transparent and efficient market structure with increased market liquidity for trading in over-the-counter energy commodities.[3][4]

In May 2000, ICE was founded by Sprecher and backed by Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley, BP, Total, UniCredit, Shell, Deutsche Bank, and Société Générale.[5][3]

In June 2001, ICE expanded its business into futures contracts trading by acquiring the London-based International Petroleum Exchange (IPE), now ICE Futures Europe, which operated Europe's largest open outcry energy futures exchange, for $131 million.[6][7]

In April 2005, the entire ICE portfolio of energy futures became fully electronic and ICE closed the trading floor of International Petroleum Exchange.[4]

ICE formed ICE Data in 2003 to meet the demand for increased market data in the OTC energy markets.[8]

In November 2005, ICE became a public company via an initial public offering.[9][10]

In January 2007, the company acquired the New York Board of Trade (NYBOT) for $400 million in cash and 10.297 million shares of ICE.[11][12]

In March 2007, ICE made an unsuccessful $9.9 billion bid for the Chicago Board of Trade, which was instead acquired by CME Group.[13][14]

In April 2007, ICE partnered with Canada's TSX Group's Natural Gas Exchange for clearing and settlement services for physical OTC natural gas contracts.[15]

In June 2007, ICE acquired privately held Winnipeg Commodity Exchange, known for its canola futures contract, for $40 million.[16] It was renamed ICE Futures Canada as of January 1, 2008.[17] ICE converted Winnipeg Commodity Exchange contracts to the ICE platform.[16]

In July 2007, ICE acquired ChemConnect, a chemical commodity market.[18][19]

In August 2008, ICE acquired Creditex, which provided trade execution and processing of credit default swaps, for $513 million, including approximately $461 million in ICE common stock and $52 million in cash.[20][21][22]

In October 2008, during to the 2008 financial crisis, ICE worked with the Federal Reserve and acquired The Clearing Corporation for the formation of ICE US Trust (now ICE Clear Credit), a clearing house for credit default swaps (CDS). The principal backers for ICE US Trust were nine of the world's largest banks: Goldman Sachs, Bank of America, Citigroup, Credit Suisse, Deutsche Bank, JPMorgan Chase, Merrill Lynch, Morgan Stanley, and UBS.[23][24][25] By August 2009, ICE had cleared $1.8 trillion in CDS[26] and by July 2010, it had cleared more than $10 trillion in CDS.[27]

In April 2010, ICE acquired Climate Exchange PLC and European Climate Exchange (ECX) for £395 million pounds ($622 million).[28] ICE had partnered with the Chicago Climate Exchange (CCX) to host its electronic marketplaces since 2003.[29]

In April 2011, ICE and Nasdaq made an $11.3 billion offer for NYSE Euronext, owner of the New York Stock Exchange and Euronext. After the offer was rejected, ICE and Nasdaq raised their offer and added a $350 million breakup fee if the deal were to encounter regulatory hurdles.[30] The United States Department of Justice initiated an antitrust review of the proposal and, after encountering regulatory resistance, the Nasdaq and ICE withdrew their bid.[31]

In December 2012, ICE announced it would buy NYSE Euronext, this time without the involvement of Nasdaq, for $8.2 billion.[32][33] The transaction was completed in November 2013.[34]

In June 2014, ICE completed the corporate spin-off of Euronext, keeping NYSE and the London International Financial Futures and Options Exchange, renaming it Intercontinental Exchange Futures.[35][36]

In September 2014, ICE acquired SuperDerivatives, a provider of risk management analytics, financial market data and valuation services, for $350 million.[37]

In December 2015, ICE acquired Interactive Data Corporation (IDC), a provider of financial market data, analytics, from Silver Lake and Warburg Pincus for $5.2 billion, including $3.65 billion in cash and $1.55 billion in ICE common stock.[40][41]

Also in December 2015, ICE acquired Trayport for $650 million from GFI Group. Trayport provides a trading technology platform that serves brokers, exchanges, clearing houses and trading participants, primarily in the European utility markets. Approximately 70%-80% of European utility trades flow through its platform.[42] Following the acquisition, the Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) called in the merger for review. In October 2016, it ruled that the merger could lead to a substantial lessening of competition and required ICE to sell Travport.[43] ICE challenged the decision in the Competition Appeal Tribunal (CAT), but the CAT upheld the CMA's decision.[44] As a result, in October 2017, ICE transferred Trayport to TMX Group in exchange for Shorcan Energy Brokers, NGX, and £350 million in cash.[45][46] The CMA's ruling against ICE was the first time CMA had required that a company sell an asset that it had already bought.[47]

In June 2016, ICE acquired a majority interest in Mortgage Electronic Registration Systems, a national electronic registry that tracks the changes in servicing rights and beneficial ownership interests in U.S.-based mortgage loans.[48] In October 2018, ICE acquired the equity in MERS that it did not already own.[49]

In February 2020, ICE made a $30 billion offer for eBay.[76] However, talks were abandoned shortly thereafter as eBay was unresponsive to a deal.[77]

In September 2020, in its largest acquisition to date, ICE acquired Ellie Mae, a cloud-based platform provider for the mortgage finance industry from Thoma Bravo for $11 billion.[78][79][80]

In December 2021, ICE acquired risQ, a geospatial metadata and climate data modeling start-up company.[81][82][83] ICE had entered into partnerships with the company to develop climate risk and ESG analytics models for municipal bond markets in January 2020[84] and mortgage-backed securities markets in March 2021.[85]

In September 2023, ICE acquired Black Knight, Inc., a software, data and analytics company that serves the housing finance continuum, for $13.1 billion.[86][87] To gain regulatory approval for the transaction, ICE entered into a consent order with the Federal Trade Commission, agreeing to sell Optimal Blue, a product, pricing, and eligibility engine, and Empower, a loan origination system, to Constellation Software.[88]

In January 2025, ICE acquired the American Financial Exchange (AFX), an electronic exchange for direct lending and borrowing for American banks and financial institutions and operator of the American Interbank Offered Rate (AMERIBOR), from 7RIDGE.[89][90]
