CFTC releases August 2011 financial data - total US forex deposits up $19 million
- Every month or so CFTC releases financial data for its members. In the past year or so CFTC also releases the total amount of retail forex obligations for retail forex brokers (under FCMRFD and RFED statuses) which shows us how much 'retail money' is held by US forex brokers.
CFTC Charges Accounting Firm McGladrey & Pullen, LLP, and Partner David Shane with Failure to Properly Audit One World Capital Group
- It's extremely interesting to see CFTC taking the oversight of its members one step further by going after not only its member firms but even after their auditors - if those failed to do their job. CFTC just charged an accounting firm and one of its partners for failing to properly audit One World Capital Group - a former forex broker which ceased its operations in 2007. This adds to CFTC's aggressive pursuit of even completely foreign firms which it perceives as breaking its rules.
CFTC releases Q2 2011 financial data - overall retail forex deposits are $9 million lower
- CFTC requires all its members to submit their own capital reports and for members (RFEDs and FCMs) the amount of retail forex obligations. For some reason this report wasn't made public since April and now CFTC made available the monthly reports for May, June and July. This allows us to track the amount of retail forex obligations for all US retail forex brokers.
