CFTC Proprietary Information Act of 2026

This bill, titled the CFTC Proprietary Information Act of 2026, requires the Commodity Futures Trading Commission to create rules protecting sensitive business information it receives from companies. The legislation mandates that the Commission establish policies for requesting, safeguarding, limiting access to, and preventing unauthorized use or disclosure of this proprietary data. It also requires the Commission to set guidelines for sharing such information with other government agencies, ensuring those agencies maintain equivalent security measures. The rules must be developed through a notice and comment process before taking effect.
