The Commodity Futures Trading Commission has updated the description of its official seal in the Code of Federal Regulations. The new seal uses a navy background with a stylized white eagle, a shield featuring five stripes and three stars, and an arch of nine stars. The eagle holds a gold olive branch and a scale of justice, all framed by two golden rings. Text around the edge reads “COMMODITY FUTURES TRADING COMMISSION” and “UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.”
Why it matters: This is an administrative update that changes the visual description of the CFTC seal in federal regulations. It does not alter the agency’s authority, regulatory requirements, or enforcement practices. The practical effect is limited to how the seal appears on official CFTC documents and publications.
Who it affects
