CFTC Issues Two Notices of Covered Action for Hunter Wise Commodities

The CFTC issued two separate notices indicating that individuals may submit whistleblower award claims regarding Hunter Wise Commodities and RP Martin Holdings and Martin Brokers.

The CFTC issues Notices of Covered Action for each enforcement action where a final judgment or order - by itself or together with prior judgments or orders in the same action issued after July 21, 2010 - results in monetary sanctions exceeding $1 million. Individuals who voluntarily provided the CFTC with original information that led to the successful enforcement of a Covered Action are eligible to claim an award.

In this case, whistleblower may claim awards from the following matters:
