Commodity Futures Trading Commission July 26, 2012 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

Ownership and Control Reports, Forms 102/102S, 40/40S, and 71
Document Number: 2012-16180
Type: Proposed Rule
Date: 2012-07-26
Agency: Commodity Futures Trading Commission, Agencies and Commissions
The Commodity Futures Trading Commission (``Commission'' or ``CFTC'') is proposing new rules and related forms to enhance its identification of futures and swap market participants. The proposed rules would leverage the Commission's existing position and transaction reporting programs by requiring the electronic submission of trader identification and market participant data on amended Forms 102 and 40, and on new Form 71. The proposed rules also incorporate a revised approach to the Commission's previous initiative to collect ownership and control information, through a dedicated ownership and control report (``OCR''), for trading accounts active on reporting markets that are designated contract markets or swap execution facilities. The Commission welcomes public comment on all aspects of its proposal.
Account Ownership and Control Report; Withdrawal
Document Number: 2012-16178
Type: Proposed Rule
Date: 2012-07-26
Agency: Commodity Futures Trading Commission, Agencies and Commissions
On July 19, 2010, the Commission published for public comment a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking that proposed to collect certain account ownership and control information for all trading accounts active on U.S. futures exchanges and other reporting entities (``OCR NPRM''). After considering all comments received in response to the OCR NPRM, the Commission is withdrawing the OCR NPRM and instead pursuing the collection of account ownership and control information through a separate proposed rulemaking published today elsewhere in the notice section of the Federal Register.
