What Changed
Starting November 3, 2026, exchanges holding both CFTC and SEC registrations may list perpetual contracts tied to single-company shares. These instruments, newly available to American investors, offer a domestic regulated path for exposure that previously required offshore platforms.
Regulatory Context
The approval rests on inter-agency cooperation under a 2000 law and a joint CFTC-SEC agreement. Selig described the move as ending prior jurisdictional confusion that had stalled similar instruments. The full statement is available through the CFTC release dated November 3, 2026.
