  • Statement On Proposed Rules For U.S. Personnel And Certain Activities Of Non-U.S. Person’s Security-Based Swaps Dealing, SEC Commissioner Kara M. Stein, April 29, 2015

    Date 29/04/2015

    During the financial crisis, the world witnessed how financial contracts known as swaps played a key role in creating a global financial hurricane.  These financial contracts tied together the destinies of seemingly unrelated financial firms.  The threat of a daisy chain of failures drove bailouts to companies no one dreamed would ever be risky.  What’s more, the crisis and bailouts flooded across international borders.  Indeed, over half of the largest recipients of the AIG bailouts were foreign organizations.

  • Statement Regarding Proposed Amendments And A Re-Proposed Rule Regarding Application Of Certain Title VII Requirements To Security-Based Swap Transactions, SEC Commissioner Daniel M. Gallagher, April 29, 2015

    Date 29/04/2015

    Thank you, Chair White.

    When the Commission first proposed rules relating to the application of Title VII of the Dodd-Frank Act to cross-border activity in 2013, I supported the proposal.  However, at that time, I expressed some reservations because, while I thought we were generally moving in the right direction, I was not convinced that we had gotten it exactly right.

  • Federal Reserve Issues FOMC Statement

    Date 29/04/2015

    Information received since the Federal Open Market Committee met in March suggests that economic growth slowed during the winter months, in part reflecting transitory factors. The pace of job gains moderated, and the unemployment rate remained steady. A range of labor market indicators suggests that underutilization of labor resources was little changed. Growth in household spending declined; households' real incomes rose strongly, partly reflecting earlier declines in energy prices, and consumer sentiment remains high. Business fixed investment softened, the recovery in the housing sector remained slow, and exports declined. Inflation continued to run below the Committee's longer-run objective, partly reflecting earlier declines in energy prices and decreasing prices of non-energy imports. Market-based measures of inflation compensation remain low; survey-based measures of longer-term inflation expectations have remained stable.
