Proposed Regulation Automated Trading

Published on:
March 16, 2016
Committee:

SIFMA AMG provides comments to the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) on their proposed Regulation Automated Trading. Many AMG members fall within the Proposal’s scope because they are registered commodity pool operators or commodity trading advisors that use automated trading to reduce costs and improve trade execution, ultimately benefiting their clients. Because asset managers generally do not access designated contract markets through direct electronic access, their orders pass through a futures commission merchant’s and DCM’s risk controls, making the controls proposed by virtue of CPO and CTA registration redundant.
