Proposed Electronic Trading Risk Principles seeks to update Commission rules in response to the evolution from pit trading to electronic trading. The risk principles proposed in the NPRM are focused on electronic trading and order routing by DCMs and market participants. The proposed risk principles are intended to mitigate the risk of market disruption and promote market integrity in connection with the trading on DCMs.
Proposed Commission regulation 38.251(e) would require DCMs to adopt and implement rules governing market participants subject to their jurisdiction to prevent, detect, and mitigate market disruptions or system anomalies associated with electronic trading. DCMs are required to submit any rules addressing market disruptions or system anomalies associated with electronic trading to the Commission for adoption pursuant to §40.5 or §40.6. The obligations created by the proposed rules are essential to promote market integrity and reduce instances of market disruptions.
Burden hours will increase because proposed § 38.251(e) will increase the analysis and number of filings required of DCMs in connection with the adoption and implementation of rules to prevent, detect, and mitigate market disruptions or system anomalies associated with electronic trading.
