This list is not an endorsement of the firms listed, and no significance should be attached to a firm's inclusion or omission.

Any non-TPH must utilize a TPH to execute the Block or ECRP trade as agent on behalf of that non-TPH just as a non-TPH would need to use a TPH to execute an order though CFE's trading system. In order for a TPH to act as agent for a non-TPH, that TPH would need to have any required registration or qualification to perform that function.

TPHs need to utilize Authorized Reporters to report Block and ECRP trades to CFE. Any individual that is a CFE TPH or a Related Party of a TPH that is pre-authorized by a CFE Clearing Member can register as an Authorized Reporter to report Block/ECRP transactions on behalf of the TPH by completing the Block Trade/ECRP Affiliated Authorized Reporter Registration and Guarantee Form. See CFE Rules 414(i) and 415(f) for more information regarding Authorized Reporter requirements. For more information on Block and ECRP trades, refer to the CFE Block/ECRP Guide.
