What is CFTC?

A regulator is the official supervisor for a market or a type of financial business. The CFTC, the Commodity Futures Trading Commission, oversees futures and related trading in the United States, and it appears in the regulator field of OANDA alongside the FCA. OANDA's CFTC registration is listed as 0325821. AMP Futures is listed with NFA and CFTC. FOREX.com shows FCA, NFA/CFTC and ASIC. Reading a registration number, rather than a logo, tells you which legal entity stands behind the account you are opening.
