reopened.
- BlueNext independently suspended all trading.
- Spot trading declined significantly, but derivatives
markets continued to trade.

- Make system more centralized, with one set of standards.
- Improve proof of identify for opening registry accounts -
photographic and other documentation.
- Limit the opening of registry accounts to compliance
buyers and qualified dealers.
- Clarify status of stolen EUAs purchased in good faith.
Other
- Concerns carousel trading (VAT fraud) and money
laundering may be continuing undetected.
