Remarks At SIFMA’s 2011 Annual Meeting - SEC Chairman Mary L. Schapiro

Date 07/11/2011

In a break from the question-and-answer conference format, I wanted to take this opportunity to address an important policy issue that has not been fully resolved following the financial crisis of 2008. That policy issue relates to money market funds – and the SEC’s ongoing efforts, in close coordination with the Financial Stability Oversight Council, to pursue further structural reform of these vehicles. The purpose of this reform would be to improve market resiliency by reducing money market funds’ susceptibility to runs and providing for a greater cushion in the case of a poor credit decision or decrease in short-term liquidity.
