    • Please be advised that CFTC regulation § 45.5 is changing to require the issuing of Global Unique Transaction Identifiers (UTI) for regulatory reporting, with a compliance date of December 5, 2022. As part of supporting the adoption of Global UTI for Commodity Swaps, and in recognition of the adoption of Global UTI in other jurisdictions, starting with trade date December 5, 2022 in Production (with availability in New Release tentatively targeted for October 12, 2022), CME Clearing will begin issuing Unique Transaction Identifiers instead of Unique Swap Identifiers (USIs) (contained in RegTrdID in FIXML messages) for all cleared trades, including futures and options. A detailed description of the new format appears below.
