NFA can mean several things, depending on the context. Here are the most common interpretations:
-
(In the US) National Futures Association: This is a self-regulatory organization for the U.S. derivatives industry, including futures commission merchants, introducing brokers, commodity pool operators, and commodity trading advisors.
-
(In Britain) No Fixed Abode: This is a term used to describe someone who is homeless and has no permanent address.
Therefore, the meaning of NFA depends entirely on the situation in which it is used. To understand the intended meaning, consider the context carefully.
