The month of February did not provide much in the way of new NFA rules and regulations. However, the NFA did extend relief from on-site branch reviews as a response to the on-going covid-19 pandemic. Additionally, the NFA elected new members to its board of directors and nominating committee. One of the election results was contested, but resulted in the addition of Douglas L. Bry of Augur Trading Company’s to the NFA’s Board of Directors. For a complete list of the newly elected members please see below.
