Obtaining Registration Records

Firms, floor brokers, and floor traders can obtain copies of their registration records and filings using NFA's Online Registration System (ORS).

To access your firm's registration records or filings:

  • Log into ORS.
  • Click the View Registration Information tab.
  • Go to the Hardcopy section.
  • Click Filing History.

In addition, NFA grants access to and can certify historical registration records, as well as any new records that NFA receives. NFA can also provide copies of other CFTC records that NFA receives and maintains as authorized or required by the CFTC.
