期货和衍生品行业监管动态




                        “Mismarking schemes undermine the fairness and integrity of the markets, and
                   we will vigorously pursue such misconduct and hold individuals accountable, where

                   appropriate,” said CFTC Acting Director of Enforcement Gretchen Lowe.


                        Case Background


                        The order finds that between January 2015 and at least April 2018, Brochard, a

                   trader on the IRD Desk, submitted false or misleading entries in the swap dealer’s

                   internal recordkeeping and accounting system relating to the marking of the

                   end-of-day USD LIBOR forward curve (Closing Curve), for the purpose of inflating

                   the unrealized profit & loss (P&L) of the IRD Desk and disguising significant trading

                   losses. Brochard engaged in a pattern of marking the Closing Curve in a manner that

                   varied from observed mid-market prices and in a manner that aligned with the risk

                   positions of the IRD Desk, while generally staying within the limits of internal
                   controls designed to detect mismarking. At its peak in early 2018, Brochard’s

                   mismarking of the Closing Curve overstated the P&L of the IRD Desk by

                   approximately $25 million.


                        In accepting Brochard’s offer of settlement, the CFTC recognizes his substantial

                   cooperation during the Division of Enforcement’s investigation of this matter. The

                   CFTC notes that Brochard’s cooperation was recognized in the form of a reduced

                   civil monetary penalty.

                   估值活动(2022 年 9 月 6 日)


                        CFTC 签发行政令对全球性银行和互换交易商 Natixis 提出指控并达成和解,

                   因该银行在其位于纽约的利率衍生品交易柜台(IRD Desk)和股票衍生品流通与

                   方案交易柜台(FAST Desk)未能认真对其交易员进行监督。为夸大利润、减少

                   损失,或为使其回报更“均匀”,IRD Desk 和 FAST Desk 的交易员分别对其头
