WASHINGTON, D.C. — The Commodity Futures Trading Commission’s Market Participants Division, the Division of Clearing and Risk, and the Division of Market Oversight (Operating Divisions) and the Division of Enforcement (DOE) today issued a staff advisory providing guidance on the materiality or other criteria that the Operating Divisions will use to determine whether to make a referral to DOE for self-reported violations, or supervision or non-compliance issues. 

This advisory furthers the implementation of DOE’s recent advisory, issued February 25, 2025, addressing its updated policy on self-reporting, cooperation, and remediation. [See CFTC Press Release No. 9054-25.]
