The CFTC Red (Registration Deficient) List and SEC PAUSE (Public Alert: Unregistered Soliciting Entities) Program are designed to protect investors from unregistered soliciting entities that often engage in fraudulent activities.

The CFTC Red List identifies foreign entities that are soliciting and accepting funds from U.S. residents for trading, often in commodities and derivatives, without proper registration.

Similarly, the SEC PAUSE Program identifies firms and individuals impersonating legitimate entities or promoting investment scams without proper registration.

Both programs aim to alert and educate investors, helping them identify and avoid potential scams, thereby enhancing overall market integrity and investor protection.
