Data Resources
In support of its mission to promote better understanding of and greater transparency into the global derivatives markets, FIA publishes several types of statistics. These include levels of trading activity on exchanges and swap execution facilities as well as the number of clearing firms in the U.S. and the amount of customer funds held by these firms.
CCP Tracker
Quarterly data on risk exposures at derivatives clearinghouses

The CCP Tracker is designed to provide greater transparency into the amount of risk in the global clearing system and the financial resources available to protect the system from losses. Using the public quantitative disclosures published by derivatives clearinghouses on a quarterly basis, the CCP Tracker contains a set of charts and tables that allow users to compare several key metrics for each quarter going back to the second half of 2015.

Customer Seg Funds in Futures Accounts and FCM Count over Time
This visualization shows the amount of customer funds in futures accounts held by futures commission merchants in the U.S. as well as the total number of FCMs that are holding those funds.

The visualizations show the level of customer segregated funds held by FCMs as well as the number of FCMs holding those funds. The visualizations also include a table showing the amount of customer funds held by each FCM and the percent change over time, and a special "lookup" page that displays key data points for individual FCMs. Sign up to receive monthly alerts.

Monthly Volume Overview

Since 2014, we've collected volume data from swap execution facilities, a new type of trading venue registered with the Commodity Futures Trading Commission. To provide the public with a greater transparency into the trading activity on these venues, we publish data on volume and market share trends for interest rate, credit and foreign exchange products traded on SEFs. This data is accessible through a series of interactive online visualizations that allow users to display the data in charts and tables, filter the data in various ways, and download the data in several formats. We also publish a spreadsheet with weekly data.
