In China, the members of China Financial Futures Exchange are mainly divided into settlement members and trading members. Trading members have no settlement function, and settlement members are divided into special settlement members, which can provide settlement services for trading members, but they are not qualified for brokerage business, mainly banks, but they have not yet approved special settlement members; General settlement members can provide settlement for themselves and trading members, and are also qualified as brokers;

Trading settlement members provide their own settlement and are also qualified as brokers. Banks that provide settlement services for futures companies can apply to become settlement members of the gold exchange because they have sufficient funds to guarantee them, charge settlement fees and bear settlement risks, but they do not participate in futures trading themselves. Members of other domestic futures exchanges are divided into brokerage members and self-operated members, all of which settle accounts by themselves.
