Finishing The Work Of Regulating Security-Based Derivatives, SEC Commissioner Luis A. Aguilar, Sept. 15, 2015

Date 15/09/2015

About seven years ago, our country suffered a financial crisis that resulted in devastating economic damage. A close look at what happened made clear that one of the major contributing factors to the crisis was the role of the unregulated derivatives market. In response to the regulatory deficiencies exposed during the financial crisis, Congress passed, among other things, Title VII of the Dodd-Frank Act, which requires the SEC and the CFTC to establish a framework for regulating the over-the-counter swaps market. In particular, the Commission became responsible, per the Dodd-Frank Act, for coming up with rules to regulate the security-based swap (“SBS”) market, which comprises approximately $14 trillion in SBS market value.
Statement Of CFTC Commissioner J. Christopher Giancarlo On The Proposal To Amend The Definition Of “Material Terms” For Purposes Of Swap Portfolio Reconciliation

Date 15/09/2015

In its rush to implement the Dodd-Frank Act over the past few years, the Commission issued multiple rules that proved to be confusing, impracticable or unworkable, which in turn necessitated the unprecedented issuance of no-action relief, either due to unrealistic compliance deadlines, problematic elements of the rules or both. I trust that today’s proposal from the Commission signals that the epoch of heedless rule production is drawing to a close.
