The CFTC is the competent authority for the supervision of all derivative contracts that are not based on a single security (a bond or share), loan or a narrow based group or index of securities, and is responsible for authorising and regulating CCPs which provide clearing services for those derivative contracts (‘derivative clearing organizations’ or ‘DCOs’).
La CFTC est l'autorité chargée de la surveillance de l'ensemble des contrats dérivés qui ne sont pas fondés sur un titre unique (une action ou une obligation), un prêt unique ou un groupe ou indice de titres à base étroite.
