In February 2016, the FASB issued a standards update that requires lessees to recognize on the balance sheet the assets and liabilities associated with the rights and obligations created by those leases. The guidance for lessors is largely unchanged from current accounting rules. Under the new guidance, a lessee will be required to recognize assets and liabilities for leases with lease terms of more than 12 months. Consistent with current accounting standards, the recognition, measurement, and presentation of expenses and cash flows arising from a lease by a lessee primarily will depend on its classification as a finance or operating lease. The company implemented this standard as of January 1, 2019 using the modified retrospective approach with a cumulative effect of initially applying the guidance recognized on the date of initial adoption. Upon adoption of the new standard on January 1, 2019, the company recognized a lease liability of $568.0 million and right-of-use asset of $448.2 million . Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements. In June 2016, the FASB issued guidance that changes how credit losses are measured for most financial assets measured at amortized cost and certain other instruments. The standard requires an entity to estimate its lifetime expected credit loss and record an allowance, that when deducted from the amortized cost basis of the financial asset, presents the net amount expected to be collected on the financial asset. This forward-looking expected loss model generally will result in the earlier recognition of allowances for losses. The standard also amends the impairment model for available for sale debt securities and requires entities to determine whether all or a portion of the unrealized loss on an available for sale debt security is a credit loss. Severity and duration of the unrealized loss are no longer permissible factors in concluding whether a credit loss exists. Entities will recognize improvements to estimated credit losses on available for sale debt securities immediately in earnings rather than as interest income over time. The standard is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019. The standard’s provisions must be applied as a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance is effective. Early adoption is permitted for reporting periods beginning in 2019. The company does not believe that the adoption of this guidance in 2020 will have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements. In August 2018, the FASB issued a standards update that modifies the disclosure requirements for employers that sponsor defined pension or other postretirement plans. The guidance clarifies certain existing disclosures and expands the requirements for others. Disclosures that are not considered cost beneficial are removed by the update. Also, there is a new disclosure requirement to include an explanation of the reasons for significant gains and losses related to changes in the benefit obligation for the period. This guidance is effective for reporting periods beginning in 2021. Early adoption is permitted. The company plans to update the disclosures for these changes upon adoption of the guidance in 2021. |

Revenue Recognition [Abstract] | |
Revenue Recognition, Deferred Revenue [Policy Text Block] | Revenue Recognition The company generates revenue from customers from the following sources: Clearing and transaction fees. Clearing and transaction fees include electronic trading fees and brokerage commissions, surcharges for privately-negotiated transactions, portfolio reconciliation and compression services, risk mitigation and other volume-related charges for trade contracts. Clearing and transaction fees are assessed upfront at the time of trade execution. As such, the company recognizes the majority of the fee revenue upon successful execution of the trade. The minimal remaining portion of the fee revenue related to settlement activities performed after trade execution is recognized over the short-term period that the contract is outstanding, based on management’s estimates of the average contract lifecycle. These estimates are based on various assumptions to approximate the amount of fee revenue to be attributed to services performed through contract settlement, expiration, or termination. For cleared trades, these assumptions include the average number of days that a contract remains in open interest, contract turnover, average revenue per day, and revenue remaining in open interest at the end of each period. The nature of contracts gives rise to several types of variable consideration, including volume-based pricing tiers, customer incentives associated with market maker programs and other fee discounts. The company includes fee discounts and incentives in the estimated transaction price when there is a basis to reasonably estimate the amount of the fee reduction. These estimates are based on historical experience, anticipated performance, and best judgment at the time. Because of the company's certainty in estimating these amounts, they are included in the transaction price of contracts. Market data and information services. Market data and information services represent revenue from the dissemination of market data to subscribers, distributors, and other third-party licensees of market data. Pricing for market data is primarily based on the number of reportable devices used as well as the number of subscribers enrolled under the arrangement. Fees for these services are generally billed monthly. Market data services are satisfied over time and revenue is recognized on a monthly basis as the customers receive and consume the benefit of the market data services. However, the company also maintains certain annual license arrangements with one-time upfront fees. The fees for annual licenses are initially recorded as a contract liability and recognized as revenue monthly over the term of the annual period. Other. Other revenues include access and communication fees, fees for collateral management, fees for trade order routing through agreements from various strategic relationships, as well as other post-trade services to customers and clearing firms. Access and communication fees are charges to customers that utilize various telecommunications networks and communications services. Fees for these services are generally billed monthly and the associated fee revenue is recognized as billed. Collateral management fees are charged to clearing firms that have collateral on deposit with CME to meet their minimum performance bond and guaranty fund obligations on the exchange. These fees are calculated based on daily collateral balances and are billed monthly. This fee revenue is recognized monthly as billed as the customers receive and consume the benefits of the services. Pricing for strategic relationships may be driven by customer levels and activity. There are fee arrangements which provide for monthly as well as quarterly payments in arrears. Revenue is recognized monthly for strategic relationship arrangements as the customers receive and consume the benefits of the services. The following table represents a disaggregation of revenue from contracts with customers for the quarters and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018: Quarter Ended Six Months Ended June 30, (in millions) 2019 2018 2019 2018 Interest rates $ 347.4 $ 288.9 $ 650.2 $ 627.3 Equity indexes 148.1 157.3 294.0 352.3 Foreign exchange 39.3 49.1 80.5 100.2 Agricultural commodities 141.5 141.4 246.5 262.5 Energy 179.3 192.0 344.3 383.6 Metals 58.1 60.5 109.1 119.9 Cash markets business 120.7 — 243.6 — Interest rate swap 17.4 16.9 36.2 33.9 Total clearing and transaction fees 1,051.8 906.1 2,004.4 1,879.7 Market data and information services 128.3 113.8 258.4 208.7 Other 92.6 39.7 189.5 80.2 Total revenues $ 1,272.7 $ 1,059.6 $ 2,452.3 $ 2,168.6 Timing of Revenue Recognition Services transferred at a point in time 988.1 890.6 $ 1,881.0 $ 1,848.4 Services transferred over time 281.9 166.7 559.6 315.5 One-time charges and miscellaneous revenues 2.7 2.3 11.7 4.7 Total revenues $ 1,272.7 $ 1,059.6 $ 2,452.3 $ 2,168.6 The timing of revenue recognition, billings and cash collections results in billed accounts receivable, and customer advances and deposits (contract liabilities) on the consolidated balance sheets. Certain fees for transactions, annual licenses, and other revenue arrangements are billed upfront before revenue is recognized, which results in the recognition of contract liabilities. These liabilities are reported on the consolidated balance sheets on a contract-by-contract basis at the end of each reporting period. For annual licenses and upfront fee arrangements, the company generally bills customers upon contract execution. These payments are recognized as revenue over time as the obligations under the contracts are satisfied. Changes in the contract liability balances during the six months ended June 30, 2019 were not materially impacted by any other factors. The balance of contract liabilities was $57.9 million and $44.4 million as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 |

Performance Bonds and Guaranty Fund Contributions [Abstract] | |
Performance Bonds and Guaranty Fund Contributions | Performance Bonds and Guaranty Fund Contributions Performance Bonds and Guaranty Fund Contributions. CME has been designated as a systemically important financial market utility by the Financial Stability Oversight Council and is authorized to establish and maintain a cash account at the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago. At June 30, 2019 , CME maintained $16.7 billion within the cash account at the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago. The cash deposit at the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago is included within performance bonds and guaranty fund contributions on the consolidated balance sheets. Clearing House Contract Settlement. The clearing house marks-to-market open positions for all futures and options contracts twice a day (once a day for CME's cleared-only interest rate swap contracts). Based on values derived from the mark-to-market process, the clearing house requires payments from clearing firms whose positions have lost value and makes payments to clearing firms whose positions have gained value. Under the extremely unlikely scenario of simultaneous default by every clearing firm who has open positions with unrealized losses, the maximum exposure related to positions other than cleared-only interest rate swap contracts would be one half day of changes in fair value of all open positions, before considering the clearing house's ability to access defaulting clearing firms' collateral deposits. For CME's cleared-only interest rate swap contracts, the maximum exposure related to CME's guarantee would be one full day of changes in fair value of all open positions, before considering CME's ability to access defaulting clearing firms' collateral. During the first six months of 2019, the clearing house transferred an average of approximately $3.1 billion a day through its clearing systems for settlement from clearing firms whose positions had lost value to clearing firms whose positions had gained value. The clearing house reduces its guarantee exposure through initial and maintenance performance bond requirements and mandatory guaranty fund contributions. The company believes that its guarantee liability is immaterial and therefore has not recorded any liability at June 30, 2019 |

Loss Contingency [Abstract] | |
Contingencies | Contingencies Legal and Regulatory Matters. In 2013, the CFTC filed suit against NYMEX and two former employees alleging disclosure of confidential customer information in violation of the Commodity Exchange Act. NYMEX’s motion to dismiss was denied in 2014. Based on its investigation to date and advice from legal counsel, the company believes that it has strong factual and legal defenses to the claim. In 2003, the U.S. Futures Exchange, L.L.C. (Eurex U.S.) and U.S. Exchange Holdings, Inc. filed suit in federal court alleging that CBOT and CME violated the antitrust laws and tortuously interfered with the business relationship and contract between Eurex U.S. and The Clearing Corporation. On October 31, 2018, the Court granted CBOT's and CME's motion for summary judgment and dismissed the case in its entirety. Eurex has appealed this decision. In the normal course of business, the company discusses matters with its regulators raised during regulatory examinations or otherwise subject to their inquiry and oversight. These matters could result in censures, fines, penalties or other sanctions. Management believes the outcome of any resulting actions will not have a material impact on its consolidated financial position or results of operations. However, the company is unable to predict the outcome or the timing of the ultimate resolution of these matters, or the potential fines, penalties or injunctive or other equitable relief, if any, that may result from these matters. In addition, the company is a defendant in, and has potential for, various other legal proceedings arising from its regular business activities. While the ultimate results of such proceedings against the company cannot be predicted with certainty, the company believes that the resolution of any of these matters on an individual or aggregate basis will not have a material impact on its consolidated financial position or results of operations. No accrual was required for legal and regulatory matters as none were probable and estimable as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 . Intellectual Property Indemnifications . Certain agreements with customers and other third parties related to accessing CME Group’s services may contain indemnifications from intellectual property claims that may be made against them as a result of their use of the applicable services. The potential future claims relating to these indemnifications cannot be estimated and therefore no liability has been recorded. |

Leases [Abstract] | |
Lessee, Leases [Policy Text Block] | Leases The company adopted the new leasing standard on January 1, 2019, using the modified retrospective approach. The standard requires lessees to recognize on the balance sheet the assets and liabilities associated with the rights and obligations created by those leases. Upon implementation of the standard, the company utilized the package of practical expedients which did not require reassessment of the following: (a) whether any expired or existing contracts are or contain leases, (b) the lease classification for any expired or existing leases, and (c) any initial direct costs for existing leases. In addition, the company has elected not to separately account for lease and non-lease components, resulting in a greater amount of capitalized lease costs on the balance sheet. Upon adoption of the new standard on January 1, 2019, the company recognized a lease liability of $568.0 million and right-of-use asset of $448.2 million . The company has operating leases for datacenters, corporate offices, and certain information technology equipment. The operating leases have remaining lease terms of up to 19 years, some of which include options to extend or renew the leases for up to an additional 5 years, and some of which include options to early terminate the leases in less than 12 months. Management evaluates the exercisability of these options at least quarterly in order to determine whether the contract term must be reassessed. For a small number of the leases, primarily the international locations, management's approach is to enter into short-term leases for a lease term of 12 months or less in order to provide for greater flexibility in the local environment. For certain office spaces, the company has entered into arrangements to sublease excess space to third parties, while the original lease contract remains in effect with the landlord. The company also has three finance leases, one of which is related to the sale of our datacenter in March 2016. In connection with the sale, the company leased back a portion of the property. The sale leaseback transaction was recognized under the financing method and not as a sale leaseback arrangement. We have two other finance leases related to networking equipment and connectivity hardware. These leases qualify for classification as finance leases due to our exercise of an existing purchase option on this equipment. The right-of-use lease asset is recorded within other assets, and the present value of the lease liability is recorded within other liabilities (segregated between short term and long term) on the consolidated balance sheets. The discount rate applied to the lease payments represents the company's incremental borrowing rate. The company has elected to utilize the short term lease exception for purposes of adopting this standard, such that the company has not capitalized on the balance sheet a lease asset or lease liability associated with leases with terms of 12 months or less from the commencement date. The components of lease costs were as follows: (in millions) Quarter Ended June 30, 2019 Six Months Ended June 30, 2019 Operating lease expense: Operating lease cost $ 18.9 $ 37.3 Short-term lease cost 1.5 4.9 Total operating lease expense included in other expense $ 20.4 $ 42.2 Finance lease expense: Interest expense $ 0.9 $ 1.8 Depreciation expense 2.4 4.6 Total finance lease expense $ 3.3 $ 6.4 Sublease revenue included in other revenue $ 1.7 $ 5.3 Supplemental cash flow information related to leases was as follows: (in millions) Quarter Ended Six Months Ended Cash outflows for operating leases $ 16.9 $ 32.1 Cash outflows for finance leases 4.8 9.0 Supplemental balance sheet information related to leases was as follows: Operating leases (in millions) June 30, 2019 Operating lease right-of-use assets $ 433.5 Operating lease liabilities: Other current liabilities $ 41.3 Other liabilities 524.3 Total operating lease liabilities $ 565.6 Weighted average remaining lease term (in months) 151 Weighted average discount rate 4.0 % Finance leases (in millions) June 30, 2019 Finance lease right-of-use assets $ 102.9 Finance lease liabilities: Other current liabilities $ 8.9 Other liabilities 95.2 Total finance lease liabilities $ 104.1 Weighted average remaining lease term (in months) 140 Weighted average discount rate 3.5 % Future minimum lease payments were as follows as of June 30, 2019 for operating and finance leases: (in millions) Operating Leases Remainder of 2019 $ 31.5 2020 63.3 2021 60.1 2022 62.9 2023 59.0 2024 53.4 Thereafter 399.0 Total lease payments 729.2 Less: imputed interest (163.6 ) Present value of lease liability $ 565.6 (in millions) Finance Leases Remainder of 2019 $ 9.9 2020 16.9 2021 17.0 2022 17.1 2023 17.2 2024 17.4 Thereafter 111.8 Total lease payments 207.3 Less: imputed interest (103.2 ) Present value of lease liability $ 104.1 |

Guarantees [Abstract] | |
Guarantees | Guarantees Mutual Offset Agreement. CME and Singapore Exchange Limited (SGX) have a mutual offset agreement with a current term through October 2019. This agreement enables market participants to open a futures position on one exchange and liquidate it on the other. The term of the agreement will automatically renew for a one -year period unless either party provides advance notice of their intent to terminate. CME can maintain collateral in the form of U.S. Treasury securities or irrevocable, standby letters of credit. At June 30, 2019 , CME was contingently liable to SGX on letters of credit totaling $335.0 million . Regardless of the collateral, CME guarantees all cleared transactions submitted through SGX and would initiate procedures designed to satisfy these financial obligations in the event of a default, such as the use of performance bonds and guaranty fund contributions of the defaulting clearing firm. The company believes that its guarantee liability is immaterial and therefore has not recorded any liability at June 30, 2019 . Family Farmer and Rancher Protection Fund. In 2012, the company established the Family Farmer and Rancher Protection Fund (the Fund). The Fund is designed to provide payments, up to certain maximum levels, to family farmers, ranchers and other agricultural industry participants who use the company's agricultural commodity products and who suffer losses to their segregated account balances due to their CME clearing member becoming insolvent. Under the terms of the Fund, farmers and ranchers are eligible for up to $25,000 per participant. Farming and ranching cooperatives are eligible for up to $100,000 per cooperative. The Fund was established with a maximum of $100.0 million available for distribution to participants. Since its establishment, the Fund has made payments of approximately $2.0 million , which leaves $98.0 million available for future claims. If, at any time, payments due to participants were to exceed the amount remaining in the fund, payments would be pro-rated. Clearing members and customers must register with the company in advance and provide certain documentation in order to substantiate their eligibility. The company believes that its guarantee liability is immaterial and therefore has not recorded any liability at June 30, 2019 |

Fair Value by Fair Value Hierarchy Level Extensible List [Abstract] | |
Fair Value Measurements | Fair Value Measurements The company uses a three-level classification hierarchy of fair value measurements for disclosure purposes: • Level 1 inputs, which are considered the most reliable evidence of fair value, consist of quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets. • Level 2 inputs consist of observable market data, such as quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, or inputs other than quoted prices that are directly observable. • Level 3 inputs consist of unobservable inputs which are derived and cannot be corroborated by market data or other entity-specific inputs. Level 1 assets generally include investments in publicly traded mutual funds, equity securities and corporate debt securities with quoted market prices. In general, the company uses quoted prices in active markets for identical assets to determine the fair value of marketable securities. Level 2 assets and liabilities generally consist of asset-backed securities, derivatives and long-term debt notes. Asset-backed securities were measured at fair value based on matrix pricing using prices of similar securities with similar inputs such as maturity dates, interest rates and credit ratings. The derivative contracts were measured at fair value using standard valuation models with market-based observable inputs. Gains and losses on these contracts are recognized in other non-operating income (expense) and accumulated comprehensive income. The fair values of the long-term debt notes were based on quoted market prices in an inactive market. Level 3 liabilities include contingent consideration. The contingent consideration liabilities are considered level 3 liabilities because management used significant unobservable inputs, including probability factors. Changes to the probability assumption do not have a material impact on the fair value of the liability. Level 3 assets also include fixed assets and privately-held equity investments that were impaired. Recurring Fair Value Measurements. Financial assets and liabilities recorded in the consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2019 were classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that was significant to each asset and liability's fair value measurement. The following table presents financial instruments measured at fair value on a recurring basis: June 30, 2019 (in millions) Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Assets at Fair Value: Marketable securities: Corporate debt securities $ 18.4 $ — $ — $ 18.4 Mutual funds 63.0 — — 63.0 Equity securities 0.1 — — 0.1 Asset-backed securities — 0.3 — 0.3 Total Marketable Securities 81.5 0.3 — 81.8 Total Assets at Fair Value $ 81.5 $ 0.3 $ — $ 81.8 Liabilities at Fair Value: Derivative contracts $ — $ 2.4 $ — $ 2.4 Contingent consideration — — 0.5 0.5 Total Liabilities at Fair Value $ — $ 2.4 $ 0.5 $ 2.9 The following is a reconciliation of the level 3 liability valued at fair value on a recurring basis during the first six months of 2019: (in millions) Contingent Consideration Fair value of liability at December 31, 2018 $ 6.7 Unrealized gains (losses) included in operating expense 0.1 Goodwill measurement period adjustment (6.1 ) Settlements (0.2 ) Fair Value of Liability at June 30, 2019 $ 0.5 Non-Recurring Fair Value Measurements. During the first six months of 2019, the company recognized an impairment charge of $18.7 million related to three of its privately-held equity investments. The fair value of two of the investments was estimated to be zero at the impairment date and the fair value of the other investment was estimated to be $0.9 million at the impairment date. The company also recognized unrealized losses of $21.6 million related to assets held for sale and $12.3 million related to certain fixed assets. The fair value of the fixed assets was estimated to be zero at the impairment date. The fair value of the net assets held for sale were estimated to be $3.6 million at June 30, 2019. These assessments were based on quantitative and qualitative indications of impairment. The fair value measurements of the investment, fixed assets and assets held for sale are considered level 3 and non-recurring. Fair Values of Long-Term Debt Notes. The following presents the estimated fair values of long-term debt notes, which are carried at amortized cost on the consolidated balance sheets. The fair values below that are classified as level 2 under the fair value hierarchy were estimated using quoted market prices in inactive markets. The fair value of the debt facility that was classified as level 3 under the fair value hierarchy was estimated based on assumptions made by management regarding expectations of future settlement of the debt. At June 30, 2019 , the fair values (in U.S. dollar equivalent) were as follows: (in millions) Fair Value Level $750.0 million fixed rate notes due September 2022 $ 769.7 Level 2 €15.0 million fixed rate notes due May 2023 19.2 Level 2 $750.0 million fixed rate notes due March 2025 780.2 Level 2 $500.0 million fixed rate notes due June 2028 543.6 Level 2 $750.0 million fixed rate notes due September 2043 960.4 Level 2 $700.0 million fixed rate notes due June 2048 787.1 Level 2 Commercial paper 634.7 Level 3 |
