Washington, D.C. — The Commodity Futures Trading Commission today filed and simultaneously settled charges against Interactive Brokers LLC, a registered futures commission merchant, for failing to diligently supervise the handling of its customer accounts by not adequately preparing and configuring its electronic trading system to receive negative prices and calculate margin on April 20, 2020, in violation of CFTC Regulation 166.3.
The order requires Interactive Brokers to pay a civil monetary penalty of $1.75 million and restitution of $82.57 million to its customers. Interactive Brokers is credited the full restitution due to its compensation payment to its customers.
“This enforcement action demonstrates that the CFTC will hold registrants responsible for their handling of customer accounts and ensuring the integrity of trades on their trading platforms and electronic systems, including during instances of market volatility,” said Acting Director of Enforcement Vincent McGonagle.
