Floor Broker (FB)

 A Floor Broker is an individual who purchases or sells any futures contracts or options on futures on any contract market for any other person.

A registered FB need not also register as a Floor Trader in order to engage in activity as a Floor Trader.

 An FB is required to file the following:

• A completed online Form 8-R
• Fingerprint Cards
• Proof from a contract market or derivatives transaction execution facility (DTEF) that the individual has been granted trading privileges. The contract market or DTEF may provide proof after the application has been filed.
• A non refundable Floor Broker Application Fee of $85.00* 

*An application fee is not required if the individual is currently registered with the CFTC in any capacity or is listed as a principal of a current CFTC registrant.
