Money is the largest total of penalty, disgorgement and interest recorded in any one record of the matter (figures are not added across records, since later records often repeat earlier ones), shown in the currency the regulator used. Where there is no figure the record states none.

Outcome mix

Latest recorded status of each of the 2 matters: settled 2.

Pattern across the matters

The 2 matters were brought by 2 regulators (FCA, CFTC). The techniques most often recorded were fx fixing (2 of 2), benchmark submission rigging (1 of 2), price manipulation (1 of 2). All of the matters started in the same year, which usually means one episode brought by more than one regulator. This is arithmetic on the records and says nothing about the merits of any of them.
