Statement on Equity Perpetual Futures
Why this matters
The document is an official statement by the CFTC Chairman, so it is classed as a speech. Its substance concerns the deemed approval of equity perpetual futures as security futures products under Commission Regulation 40.3 and the CFTC-SEC coordination under the CFMA and MOU, which places it in Capital Markets & Trading and under Authorisation & Licensing. The named firm types are inferred from who would trade or offer these products. Exchanges are not on the list, so Broker Dealer and Asset Manager are the closest fits. Urgency is null because the content is informational.
