The first indicator measures the adequacy of the framework of oversight controls and looks specifically at whether the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) and the exchanges adequately assessed trading system vulnerabilities and established appropriate controls comparable to those used by other markets and regulators. The second indicator assesses the number and nature of disciplinary actions taken, focusing on whether reliable and sufficient data exist to measure the extent of abuses. The third indicator uses oversight data from trading activities, investigations conducted, and penalties imposed to target abuse trends and improve oversight programs. Additionally, the CFTC and the exchanges are looking into the aspects of the open-outcry trading method that foster trading abuses.
