Statement Of Support Of CFTC Chairman Rostin Behnam - Notice Of Proposed Rulemaking For Investment Of Customer Funds By Futures Commission Merchants And Derivatives Clearing Organizations

Date 03/11/2023

A fundamental tenet of the Commission’s customer protection framework is the safeguarding and investment of customer funds deposited by customers with futures commission merchants (“FCMs”) and derivatives clearing organizations (“DCOs”) to margin futures, foreign futures, and cleared swaps transactions. This proposal to revise the Commission’s regulations for the safeguarding and investment of customer funds by FCMs and DCOs in Commission regulations 1.20, 1.25, 1.26, 1.32, 22.2, 22.3, and 30.7 along with the relevant appendices does not change this foundational principle. This proposal embodies a prudent, periodic reassessment of these requirements to ensure that this framework remains appropriately calibrated to preserve principal and maintain liquidity. Therefore, I support the Commission issuing this proposal for public comment.

The over-the-counter structure of the corporate bond market makes the value of bilateral interactions particularly important for investors.

For dealers, a client relationship could be helpful for managing inventory risk, for generating larger profits from loyal clients, or for extracting information from the client's order flow. Such relationships may be particularly valuable during stress episodes like the March 2020 Covid-19 crisis. In this paper, we use a unique regulatory data set on corporate bond transactions to study bilateral trading relationships in the dealer-customer segment of the corporate bond market.
