  • "The Plan, Stan—Moving Forward On A Futures Insurance Fund" - Statement Of Commissioner Bart Chilton On The Futures Investor And Customer Protection Act (FICPA) Proposal

    Date 09/08/2012

    Last November, in the wake of the MF Global debacle, I called for a futures insurance fund. It made no sense to me that banking customers had insurance (up to $250,000) through the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) and that security customers had similar protections up to $500,000 through the Securities Investor Protection Corporation (SIPC). The support for such a futures insurance fund, at the time, was essentially zero. Nobody said they liked it. A few folks said they didn't like it. Perhaps it would only encourage risky behavior by firms if they knew there was insurance, one Member of Congress suggested to me. That's a good point, which is why such a fund (if it were to exist) should never pay out for trading losses or losses as a result of a downturn in the economy. Some suggested, without much detail, that such a fund for futures customers would be excessively expensive. I don't agree. Ask those who lost money if they would have wanted such a fund and there will be unanimous support of such a concept.
