Guidance from FINRA CAT on Fully-Executed or Cancelled Orders

On September 3rd, FINRA CAT issued a FAQ that Industry Members are not required to report an Order Modification Request or Order Cancel Request event to CAT in Phase 2d to the extent an order has already been fully executed or cancelled. However, reporting of this activity may be required in future phases of CAT. This is a positive result as FIF members were concerned about the system changes that would have been required for reporting these events to CAT.
