Statement On Funds' Use of Derivatives, SEC Commissioner Caroline A. Crenshaw, Oct. 28, 2020

Date 28/10/2020

Thank you, Mr. Chairman and my fellow commissioners.

In November of 2019, when the Commission proposed this derivatives rule, we had no idea how much the world would change in a few short months. This spring, we experienced historic economic turmoil, with more days of large market movements than we had experienced in decades, and significant dislocations in credit markets. The Federal Reserve Board and Congress undertook extraordinary interventions to ensure that credit markets did not collapse. While with the benefit of those interventions registered funds have seemingly weathered the storm so far, it is not because our existing framework adequately addressed the risks that funds can entail. Next time, it could turn out very differently – badly – because many registered funds’ reliance on derivatives and leverage to achieve their investment objectives could lead to disaster in times of prolonged or dramatic market stress.
