CFTC Keeps Tabs on Traders Via Form Renewal

## Summary

The Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) wants to keep collecting info from traders and accounts to better track who’s who in the futures and swaps markets. They’re asking for public feedback by October 5, 2026, before renewing these reporting forms.
