How Does the Shift from OTC to Exchange-Traded Impact Regulatory Oversight?

The shift significantly increases regulatory oversight. Exchange-traded derivatives are subject to strict rules regarding market manipulation, transparency, and reporting, overseen by regulators like the CFTC or SEC.

The move to an exchange environment makes the market more transparent and easier for regulators to monitor. Increased oversight is a core goal of derivatives reform.
