The rule updates the Commodity Futures Trading Commission’s official seal. It replaces the existing regulatory description and image with a new design featuring a navy background, a white eagle, a shield, stars, an olive branch, and scales of justice. This is an internal administrative change. It does not create new duties for businesses, traders, exchanges, or compliance teams, and it does not change any market rules or reporting obligations.
