CFTC Staff Addresses Use of Trust Companies for Daily Settlements

November 05, 2026

WASHINGTON - The Commodity Futures Trading Commission's Division of Clearing and Risk today issued a no-action letter addressing whether derivatives clearing organizations may use trust companies to conduct daily settlements with clearing members.
