CFTC RIN: 3038-AC54 Publication ID: Fall 2010 
Title: Offering and Selling Non-Narrow Based Stock Index Futures Traded on Foreign Boards of Trade to United States Persons  
Abstract: The Commission has received a petition from a foreign board of trade for a rulemaking to expedite the process for review of foreign stock index futures contracts to determine whether they meet the requirements for offer and sale to United States persons (cash-settled, not readily susceptible to manipulation, and based on a non-narrow-based stock index). Additional issues related to the petition include whether to move from a no-action process to rules or a certification process and, if the latter, whether such certifications should be issued at the staff or Commission level.
