Each listed U.S. futures market includes index investment for all futures and OTC markets related to or referenced to that U.S. futures market.
For example, the U.S. market listed as “WTI Crude Oil” includes (with the NYMEX’s Light “Sweet” crude oil futures market) investments held in
the NYMEX “Crude Oil Financial” market and the ICE Futures-Europe WTI Light Sweet crude oil market, because both of those contracts’
settlement prices are determined by reference to the NYMEX Light “Sweet” crude oil futures contract.

offsets.
