  • Statement Of Dissent, FY 2013 President’s Budget And Performance Review - CFTC Commissioner Scott D. O’Malia

    Date 13/02/2012

    I respectfully dissent from the Fiscal Year 2013 Budget Submission for the Commission. This budget request, like several requests before it, makes an unsubstantiated case for a massive expansion in staffing that is both unrealistic and unsustainable in this deficit environment. The request for over 300 new FTEs above the current Spending Plan goal baseline of 710 FTEs amounts to an increase of roughly 43 percent. In terms of total budget funding, the request is $308 million, an increase of $103 million or 50 percent above the current level of $205 million. As I have stated many times before, an ever-expanding staff hiring plan is fiscally irresponsible and detrimental to the Commission’s already ailing technology programs. The Commission consistently fails to recognize that in the face of its broad new statutory authority to oversee and monitor both the futures and derivatives markets, it cannot afford to continue to push off the key development and deployment of high tech automated surveillance tools, real-time trade monitoring systems, integrated trade data capture and analysis tools and new risk analytics. I cannot sign off on any budget that would put the Commission’s ability to conduct its most basic surveillance and monitoring in jeopardy.

  • SIFMA Urges Rule 621 Framework Not Impair Recovery Of Securitization Markets

    Date 13/02/2012

    In a comment letter filed today with the Securities and Exchange Commission, SIFMA expressed its appreciation for the intent of Section 621 of the Dodd-Frank Act, and agreed that certain reforms may be necessary to ensure that securitization transaction parties are not creating and selling asset-backed securities (ABS) that are intentionally designed to fail or default and profiting from the failure or default of such ABS.  At the same time, however, SIFMA urged the SEC to create a framework that prohibits these types of transactions while still allowing for the issuance of ABS without the uncertainty of overly broad or vague regulations or undue restrictions or prohibitions.
