    Date 05/06/2013

    Today, the Commission considers amending the rules that govern money market funds to address potential systemic risks.  Before I begin, I would like to recognize the efforts of the staff throughout the SEC, especially the Division of Investment Management and the Division of Risk, Strategy, and Financial Innovation.  I acknowledge and appreciate the staff’s good work in examining the 2010 amendments to Rule 2a-7 and the staff’s report, which concluded that, among other things, the 2010 amendments would not have been adequate to prevent the systemic risks that we saw in 2008.  This report has resulted in the much-improved proposal that is before us today.
