Statement of Erika Kelton, Partner and whistleblower attorney with Phillips and Cohen
“This is a historic action that shows the new CFTC Director of Enforcement Ian McGinley is willing to put teeth into the CFTC’s enforcement agenda. It also sets a strong precedent for whistleblowers, and I expect that we will see more individuals stepping forward to report significant violations of the Commodity Exchange Act.”
