description: This comprehensive CD-ROM provides extensive coverage of the work of the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), the federal agency created by Congress in 1974 as an independent agency with the mandate to regulate commodity futures and option markets in the United States. The agency protects market participants against manipulation, abusive trade practices and fraud. The CFTC is supposed to enable the markets to serve better their important functions in the nation's economy - providing a mechanism for price discovery and a means of offsetting price risk.
