The Commodity Futures Trading Commission (Commission) today approved for public comment proposed interpretive guidance regarding the cross-border application of the swaps provisions of Title VII of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (“Dodd-Frank Act”) and the Commission’s regulations.

“Not The Boss”: Statement Of CFTC Commissioner Bart Chilton On Cross Border
I support the proposed cross interpretive guidance and policy statement and exemptive order. These are global interconnected markets and we need to work with our colleagues around the planet to ensure that we have, to the greatest extent practical, harmonized rules, regulations, surveillance and enforcement. The recent Barclays matter, the JPMorgan loss and many other illustrations make the case for this far better than anything else. As they say in the detective programs: These are real cases with real victims.

SIFMA And A Coalition Of Trade Associations Express Strong Objection To CA Municipalities’ Consideration Of Mortgage Seizures
SIFMA, along with the American Bankers Association, American Council of Life Insurers, American Land Title Association, American Securitization Forum, Association of Mortgage Investors, California Bankers Association, California Land Title Association, California Mortgage Bankers Association, Community Mortgage Banking Project, Consumer Mortgage Coalition, Inland Valleys Association of REALTORS, Investment Company Institute, Mortgage Bankers Association, National Association of Home Builders, Residential Servicing Coalition, The Financial Services Roundtable, and The Housing Policy Council of the Financial Services Roundtable, today announced it has submitted a letter to the city governments of Fontana, CA and Ontario, CA, and the county of San Bernardino, CA, expressing strong objection to the municipalities’ Joint Powers Agreement that contemplates the implementation of a so-called “Homeownership Protection Plan.” The Associations are very concerned that the municipalities’ proposed use of eminent domain to seize mortgage loans raises very serious legal and constitutional issues and would likely significantly reduce access to credit for mortgage borrowers in the Fontana, Ontario, and San Bernardino areas and other areas that undertake similar actions.
