designed to detect and prevent violations of the Commodity Exchange Act (CEA) and
CFTC regulations that are the subject of the order.
“Today’s enforcement action highlights the importance of accurate and timely
swaps reporting and makes clear that persistent and recurring reporting failures
violate SEF Core Principles. Accurate and timely swaps reporting is necessary for the
CFTC to safeguard the integrity of our markets and to ensure market transparency,”

Case Background
The order specifically finds that from January 2017 to March 2022, as a result of
11 separate reporting systems issues, BGCD failed to report or accurately report

period, BGCD failed to report real-time transaction and pricing data for over 3,500
transactions to an SDR and further failed to timely submit corrected data to the SDR
for a subset of those transactions. In aggregate, these 14 issues led to BGCD’s failure
to report or accurately report (including both under and over reporting) over 16,000
swap transactions in various products (interest rate, FX, credit, and equities), on
hundreds of trading dates.
The order further finds BGCD had inadequate processes and procedures for
reporting swap transactions and identifying reporting issues as they arose. As a result,
BGCD did not timely identify the majority of these reporting issues. Specifically, over
half of BGCD’s reporting issues were unknown to BGCD for eight months or more,
with two of them being undetected (and uncorrected) for over four years. Moreover,
these persistent and recurring issues, according to the order, show BGCD’s capacity
to capture and transmit accurate and complete trade information to the public and to
the CFTC was deficient. Further, the order finds BGCD was aware it lacked a process
for reconciling its reports with the SEF’s trading activity, but failed to timely
