Summary: CCP Global, an international association representing central counterparties, supports the CFTC's efforts to promote innovation while emphasizing that fintech firms must be subject to the same regulatory requirements as traditional entities when performing functionally equivalent activities. They argue for a "same activity, same risk, same regulatory outcome" approach to ensure market stability and prevent regulatory arbitrage, particularly regarding decentralized finance (DeFi) and derivatives clearing.
