Event Synopsis:
2017 was a busy year for the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), and 2018 promises to continue that trend. Highlights of 2017 included leadership turnover at both the Commission and Division levels, expanded enforcement activities, and the launch of new initiatives. In 2017, and into 2018, the CFTC increasingly has focused its enforcement efforts on charging individuals, particularly with respect to manipulation, spoofing, and fraud. Cryptocurrency enforcement and regulation has also been a major focus. The CFTC continues to cooperate with other civil and criminal agencies in its enforcement activities and encourages companies and individuals to self-report wrongdoing.
In this LIVE Webcast, a panel of key thought leaders organized by The Knowledge Group will provide an overview of CFTC's 2017 enforcement and regulatory activities, and an outlook for 2018.
Key topics include:
• Recent CFTC Enforcement Initiatives and Outlook for 2018 and Beyond
• New Cooperation Guidelines
• Recent Focus on Spoofing Activity
• Cryptocurrency Regulation and Enforcement
