simultaneously filing and settling charges against J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, a
registered futures commission merchant and swap dealer, for failing diligently to
supervise its business as a CFTC registrant, resulting in J.P. Morgan failing to capture
billions of orders in its surveillance systems.
J.P. Morgan admits the facts in the order in Sections II.C.2 (Scope of

March 14, 2024, and the resolution with JPMorgan Chase & Co. concerning
surveillance gaps by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System dated
March 8, 2024.

Ian McGinley. “We hope it sends a clear message that CFTC registrants must take
