  • TheCityUK Responds To The Chancellor Of The Exchequer’s Budget 2016

    Date 16/03/2016

    Chris Cummings, Chief Executive, TheCityUK, said, “This Budget is delivered against a backdrop of uncertainty – increasing global risk, moderate UK growth and the forthcoming referendum on the UK’s membership of the EU. While leaving the EU might not be ruinous for the UK economy, our evidence has shown that Brexit risks damaging UK-based financial and related professional services – an industry that contributes more tax than any other sector in the UK, employs nearly 2.2 million people right across the nation and enables growth across the economy. Given our role in underpinning the UK economy, a risk to the stability of our industry poses risks to the stability of the wider economy and the return to the stronger economic growth that we all want to see.

  • Federal Reserve Issues FOMC Statement

    Date 16/03/2016

    Information received since the Federal Open Market Committee met in January suggests that economic activity has been expanding at a moderate pace despite the global economic and financial developments of recent months. Household spending has been increasing at a moderate rate, and the housing sector has improved further; however, business fixed investment and net exports have been soft. A range of recent indicators, including strong job gains, points to additional strengthening of the labor market. Inflation picked up in recent months; however, it continued to run below the Committee's 2 percent longer-run objective, partly reflecting declines in energy prices and in prices of non-energy imports. Market-based measures of inflation compensation remain low; survey-based measures of longer-term inflation expectations are little changed, on balance, in recent months.

  • Statement Of CFTC Chairman Timothy Massad On The Trade Options Final Rule

    Date 16/03/2016

    Today, the CFTC has taken another important step to address the concerns of commercial end-users who rely on the derivatives markets to hedge risk—and who, we should always remember, did not cause the financial crisis. Trade options are a type of commodity option primarily used in the agricultural, energy and manufacturing sectors. Today, the Commission has finalized some amendments to its rules that recognize trade options are different from the swaps that are the focus of the Dodd-Frank reforms. These changes will reduce the burdens on these commercial businesses and allow them to better address commercial risk.
