Required client margin held by US futures commission merchants for futures and options (F&O) trades dropped $18.4 billion in June. Goldman Sachs was the only top FCM to report an increase over the period, with clients being asked for an additional $1.5 billion.

Data from the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) shows the 47 FCMs held $295 billion of required segregated customer funds to cover F&O trades on aggregate. A year earlier, the figure was $245 billion, with 51 reporting firms.
