A group of companies backed by Citadel Securities and other firms has filed a lawsuit against the CFTC, the U.S. derivatives regulator. The suit follows a CFTC decision that opened the way for perpetual futures, or open-ended derivatives, on stocks.
The plaintiffs argue that such instruments fall under the jurisdiction of the SEC, the securities market regulator. The material notes that the CFTC previously created conditions for similar perpetuals on crypto assets, and the dispute now moves into the legal arena.
No other details are available in the current reporting, including the timeline of the proceedings or the CFTC's position.
