Statement On Edward D. Jones Enforcement Action - SEC Commissioners Luis A. Aguilar, Daniel M. Gallagher, Kara M. Stein And Michael S. Piwowar

Date 13/08/2015

The Commission’s recent enforcement action against Edward D. Jones involving the offer and sale of municipal bonds to retail investors highlights the need for clear rules requiring the disclosure of mark-ups and mark-downs. We encourage the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) and the Municipal Securities Rulemaking Board (MSRB) to complete rules mandating transparency of mark-ups and mark-downs, even in riskless principal trades. If not, we believe the Commission should propose rules to address this important issue.

Statement Of CFTC Commissioner J. Christopher Giancarlo On The Fifth No-Action Letter Delay Of Staff Advisory 13-69 (Washington, DC)

Date 13/08/2015

As I have repeatedly stated, the benign sounding ‘Staff Advisory 13-69’ should be permanently withdrawn because it represents a threat to American jobs and vital financial markets. When a regulatory action needs five delays, I think we all can admit that it is just not workable and should be scrapped. Doing so would be a good first step to helping market participants cope with an increasingly complex, conflicting and costly array of CFTC cross-border regulations.”
