Commodities Regulation FROM THE PUBLISHER
The third edition of a classic in the commodities field has been brought completely up to date to reflect the emergence of derivatives as an increasingly popular financial tool, along with the widespread use of derivatives (futures, options, swaps and a wide variety of exotic and hybrid financial products) as hedges against financial risk. Covering the regulatory, reporting and legal issues that affect these unique instruments, COMMODITIES REGULATION clearly explains:
The latest legal rules applicable to derivatives trading
Registration, reporting and disclosure requirements for derivatives professionals
Criteria for publicly traded futures and commodity options
The rules governing unprofessional conduct
Customer protection
The CFTC's reparations program
Arbitration programs
Private rights of action in the courts
A comprehensive, easy—to—use reference in this complex field, COMMODITIES REGULATION gives you the answers you need on everything from the contract markets to exemptions and exclusions, from ethical and disclosure requirements to market manipulation and more. It presents practical insights into the current thinking of the CFTC by examining no—action and interpretive letters, and in many cases, it is the only authority available on the topics addressed.
