The list of approved jurisdictions includes jurisdictions providing either affirmative approval or confirmation that such approval is not required.

The scope of activity applies to electronic trading of any Exchange product on Exchange electronic venues. This activity includes not only NYMEX products listed on the CME Globex® system, but also COMEX products on NYMEX ACCESS® until they are transitioned to Globex.
