      Critical System Information

      Globex User Signature (GUS) ID Maintenance

      As a reminder, all Front Office Admin Managers of BrokerTec (BTEC) participants are responsible for updating their firm’s Globex User Signature (GUS) IDs and to ensure that BTEC has the correct contact and identity information associated with those IDs. GUS IDs should be periodically reviewed, updated and/or deleted if considered inactive. Front Office Admin Managers must take the following action on GUS information from the Request Center:

      • Update the following information for the individual or team lead assigned to the active GUS IDs under their Globex Firm IDs (GFIDs): first and last name, email, phone number/type, country, address, and town/city.
      • Delete any GUS IDs that are no longer active. 

      Please review all GUS IDs associated with your Firm IDs as soon as possible but no later than February 29.

      Please note: Before deleting any GUS(s), make sure they are not in use as deleting them will prevent order placement. Contact Global Account Management, who will provide information regarding the Front Office Admin Managers and any system support required to make the changes. If you have compliance questions contact US Compliance.
