NFA announces Web seminar to help CPOs file pool financial statements using EasyFile

NFA announces a new Web seminar designed to help CPOs understand how to use EasyFile to file their pool financial statements. The seminar will be held on Tuesday, March 14, at 2:00 PM CST.

The CFTC recently amended its rules to require CPOs to file their financial reports with NFA electronically. As the March 31 deadline approaches, NFA has received several requests for additional guidance.

The Web seminar will walk CPOs through the process of filing a pool financial statement using EasyFile, focusing on the financial balances that CPOs must enter into the Web-based system. NFA staff will also be available to answer questions from seminar participants.

There is no charge to participate in the seminar, but registration is required. To register, just use the Web link below: http://www.iian.ibeam.com/events/nfas001/15126.

For those individuals who are unable to attend, the seminar will also be available for viewing from NFA's Web site anytime after March 14.

If you have any questions about the seminar or would like additional information, please contact Deborah Loehrke at (312) 781-1392.
