  • Statement Of CFTC Commissioner Caroline D. Pham Regarding Rule 11 Sanctions Motion In CFTC v. Traders Global Group

    Date 03/07/2024

    I have recently reviewed the allegations against the CFTC in the publicly reported Rule 11 sanctions motion in CFTC v. Traders Global Group and become aware of the admonishments in the Court’s opinion dated November 14, 2023. This is a grave matter, and we, the Commission, will be subject to intense scrutiny over how we handle the alleged CFTC misconduct. This type of behavior cannot be tolerated at a law enforcement agency. Tone comes from the top, and therefore, I urge my fellow Commissioners to consider my below recommendations to finally take full accountability and appropriate corrective action to address the conduct issues and support CFTC staff.

  • Statement Of CFTC Commissioner Caroline D. Pham On Filing Of Complaint In CFTC v. Traders Global Group

    Date 03/07/2024

    I am seriously concerned about the Commission’s rush to the wrong side of history because we are failing to put in the bare minimum amount of work necessary to get it right. It is my job to uphold the Commodity Exchange Act and the Commission’s jurisdiction so that we can faithfully execute our mission to protect the American people from fraud, manipulation, and abusive trading practices in our markets, and for that reason, I cannot stay silent. The alleged fraud in this case is reprehensible, and it is my hope that justice will be served and that the victims are made whole.
