Title: Annual Adjustment of Civil Monetary Penalties for Inflation--2025 
Abstract:

The Commodity Futures Trading Commission (Commission) is amending rule 143.8, its rule that governs the maximum amount of CMPs, to adjust for inflation. This rule sets forth the maximum, inflation-adjusted dollar amount for CMPs assessable for violations of the Commodity Exchange Act and Commission rules, regulations and orders thereunder. The rule, as amended, implements the FCPIAA. Under the FCPIAA, agencies are required to publish final rules by January 15 of every year, unless, during the preceding 12 months, the penalty was increased by an amount greater than the proposed inflation adjustment required under section 4(a) of the FCPIAA.
