Position Reporting Under CFTC Part 17
On April 30, 2024, the Commodity Futures Trading Commission ("CFTC") approved final rules to amend its Large Trading Reporting Regulations for Futures and Options. The amendments were made to modernize CFTC's Large Trader Reporting process and align it with other reporting structures outlined in CFTC regulations. CFTC's final rules remove the 80-character submission standard, replacing it with a FIXML standard. The required FIXML position message includes a large set of instrument characteristics as well as unique contract identifiers, Unique Contract Identifiers must be provided to Reporting Firms by the exchange where the positions are held.
CME, CBOT, NYMEX, and COMEX (each an "Exchange" and together the "Exchanges") will be providing Reporting Firms files containing Unique Instrument Codes in compliance with Large Trader Reporting requirements. The Exchanges are offering two methods to download this instrument information, as described in the CME Group Client Systems Wiki.
The Market Regulation Department will be publishing further guidance regarding Large Trader Reporting in subsequent Special Executive Reports as solutions become available.
CFTC's final rules became effective upon publication in the Federal Register on June 3, 2024. Reporting Firms must comply with the CFTC's final rules regarding Large Trader Reporting Requirements two years after publication in the Federal Register.
