A reminder that the CFTC requires any person that claims an exemption from CPO registration under CFTC Regulation 4.13, an exclusion from CPO registration under CFTC Regulation 4.5 or an exemption from CTA registration under 4.14, to annually affirm the applicable notice of exemption within 60 days of the calendar year end.
Failing to file this notice by March 1, 2018, will be deemed a withdrawal of the exemption and, therefore, may be require CFTC registration as well as NFA Membership.
