NFA 提交了伪造的邮件,形成及时向所有商品基金参与者提供了账户报表的假
象。由于以上行为,导致商品基金参与者损失超 190 万美元。
此前,CFTC 签发行政令,对来自亚利桑那州的美国证券交易委员会(SEC)
注册投资顾问 Paul Ohanian 及其咨询公司 Scottsdale Wealth Planning, Inc.进行立
案并达成和解,由于他们同其客户就参与 CTAX 基金交易进行沟通时故意遗漏
了重要事实且未在 CFTC 注册为商品交易顾问。行政令要求 Ohanian 和 Scottsdale
Wealth 支付 338,000 美元赔偿金和 169,000 美元的民事罚款。
此次针对被告的判令,加上针对 Ohanian 和 Scottsdale Wealth 的行政令,使
CFTC 达成了向受害者支付全部赔偿金额的目的。
