Statement On Proposal To Enhance Clearing Agency Governance, SEC Chair Gary Gensler, Aug. 8, 2022
Today, the Commission voted to propose rules to strengthen the governance of registered clearing agencies, also known as clearinghouses. This proposal would, among other things, fulfill Section 765 of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010, where Congress directed the Commission to address conflicts of interest for security-based swap clearinghouses. I was pleased to support this proposal because, if adopted, it would enhance governance standards for all registered clearinghouses, particularly with regards to conflicts of interest. This would help to promote their transparency, resilience, and reliability.

Dissenting From Stakeholder Governance For Clearing Agencies, SEC Commissioner Hester M. Peirce, Aug. 8, 2022
Clearing agencies and other clearinghouses play a central role in our financial markets. That role continues to increase as market participants and regulators look to these entities to mitigate and manage risk. Accordingly, as the proposing release recognizes, how clearinghouses are governed and managed matters. The proposal takes an overly prescriptive, regulator-knows-best approach to these matters that risks diluting the duties of directors to the clearing agency and depriving clearing agencies of the flexibility and expertise needed for effective governance.
