Commodity Futures Trading Commission October 2, 2015 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

The Commodity Futures Trading Commission (the ``Commission'') is taking final action to revise its regulations by removing the part 36 regulations. Those regulations implemented provisions of the Commodity Exchange Act (``CEA'') that established exempt boards of trade and exempt commercial marketstwo categories of derivatives- trading platforms that were eliminated from the CEA by the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the ``Dodd-Frank Act''). This action also removes various cross-references in other Commission regulations implicating exempt boards of trade and exempt commercial markets.
