CFTC Proposes to Streamline Reporting Requirements for CPOs
On April 14, 2020, the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) unanimously approved a proposal to amend certain compliance requirements for commodity pool operators (CPOs) in Regulation 4.27 and Form CPO-PQR (the Proposal).[1] In general, the Proposal eliminates certain pool-specific reporting requirements in existing Schedules B and C of Form CPO-PQR and amends the information in existing Schedule A of the form to (i) request Legal Entity Identifiers (LEIs) for CPOs and their commodity pools, and (ii) eliminate questions regarding pool auditors and marketers. Further, the Proposal requires all CPOs (regardless of their size) to file the amended Form CPO-PQR on a quarterly basis, but would allow CPOs to file NFA Form PQR in lieu of the revised Form CPO-PQR. Conversely, the CFTC would no longer accept filing Form PF by dual registrants in lieu of the revised Form CPO-PQR.
