National Futures Association - NFA
An independent self-regulatory non-profit organization that regulates the futures market.
Investopedia Says:
The NFA began operating in 1982. Through the implementation and enforcement of regulatory programs, the NFA protects investors from fraudulent futures activities. It also provides arbitration and mediation services for resolving investor complaints. Since the NFA is independent, its regulations are unbiased towards any one member.
