Recent developments have signaled that U.S. regulatory and enforcement agencies are taking a new – and tougher – approach to their enforcement efforts against traders and companies, including in the cryptocurrency industry. Kobre & Kim’s Jonathan Cogan, who focuses on high-stakes disputes and investigations in the futures and other derivatives markets, examines these trends during a panel discussion at the 2023 American Bar Association Derivatives Law Committee Winter Meeting at Hilton Head Island, South Carolina, from February 2 to 4, 2023.
The panel will examine parallel investigations by the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission and U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) and the difference between open market manipulation and wire fraud; manipulation in crypto markets; the government’s data analytics and the effect on self-reporting credit; and the Monaco memorandum and compliance culture.
