Abstract: The CFTC is proposing rules that would specify reporting requirements that would apply to fully collateralized event contracts. Those reporting requirements are generally applicable to futures and options contracts. The reporting rules are primarily implemented by the Commission pursuant to §§ 4a, 4c(b), 4g, and 4i of the CEA. Section 4a of the CEA, as amended by the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (“Dodd-Frank Act”), requires the Commission to set and enforce speculative position limits with respect to both futures and swaps. Section 4c(b) gives the Commission plenary authority to regulate transactions that involve commodity options. Section 4g(a) of the CEA requires, among other things, each futures commission merchant (“FCM”), introducing broker, floor broker, and floor trader to file such reports as the Commission may require on proprietary and customer transactions and positions in commodities for future delivery on any board of trade in the United States or elsewhere. In addition, § 4g(b) requires registered entities to maintain daily trading records as required by the Commission, and § 4g(c) requires floor brokers, introducing brokers, and FCMs to maintain their own daily trading records for each customer in such manner and form as to be identifiable with the daily trading records maintained by registered entities. Section 4g(d) permits the Commission to require that such daily trading records be made available to the Commission. Lastly, § 4i of the CEA mandates the filing of such reports as the Commission may require when positions taken or obtained on DCMs equal or exceed Commission-set levels. Collectively, these CEA provisions warrant the maintenance of an effective and rigorous system of market and financial surveillance. The reporting rules at issue implicate information collection requirements via §§ 16.00, 17.00, and Part 21 (OMB control number 3038-0009), § 16.01 (OMB control number 3038-0012), and, §§ 17.01, 18.04, and 18.05 (OMB control number 3038-0103).
