The Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) and France’s Autorité des marchés financiers (AMF) signed a new agreement to continue collaboration regarding the supervision and oversight of firms that operate on a cross-border basis in the United States and France.

The memo of understanding between the two sides, announced Friday, “establishes a framework for cooperation, contemplates the sharing of information, and provides procedures for examinations of French swap dealers currently registered with the CFTC,” the U.S. agency said in a press release.
