Statement At Open Meeting To Propose Rule Amendments Eliminating The Prohibition Against General Solicitation And General Advertising In Rule 506 And Rule 144A Offerings By SEC Commissioner Troy A. Paredes
Thank you, Chairman Schapiro.
When addressing a joint session of Congress last year, the President expressed his intent to “cut away the red tape that prevents too many rapidly growing startup companies from raising capital and going public.”1 On April 5 of this year, the President signed into law the Jumpstart Our Business Startups (JOBS) Act to do exactly that. The goal motivating the bipartisan legislation is to spur our economy and job creation by making it easier for companies to raise the capital they need to invest and hire. In this way, the JOBS Act promotes the SEC’s own mission, which includes facilitating capital formation. In promoting capital formation, the JOBS Act also stands to benefit investors by affording them a wider range of investment opportunities.

Opening Remarks Regarding The Proposal Of Rules Eliminating The Prohibition Against General Solicitation And General Advertising In Rule 506 And Rule 144A Offerings, SEC Commissioner Elisse B. Walter
In recent years Congress has directed the Commission to promulgate a myriad of rules. When Congress directs the Commission to take an action, I believe that we have a duty to take that action, regardless of our personal feelings about the policy choices that Congress made.

Joint Statement Of Dissent By CFTC Commissioners Jill Sommers And Scott O’Malia - Clearing Exemption For Swaps Between Certain Affiliated Entities
We respectfully dissent from the notice of proposed rulemaking to exempt swaps between certain affiliated entities from the clearing requirement. While we wholly support a clearing exemption for swaps between affiliated entities within a corporate group, we cannot support the proposal before the Commission today because in certain instances it imposes an unnecessary requirement for variation margin on corporate entities that engage in inter-affiliate trades.
