Statement At The SEC Open Meeting On Money Market Fund Reform - Opening Statement By SEC Commissioner Elisse B. Walter
Date 05/06/2013
"The SEC, by virtue of its institutional expertise and statutory authority, is best positioned to implement reforms to address the risk that money market funds present to the economy."1Although this sounds like it might be a quote from the Commission, I am actually quoting a statement from the Financial Stability Oversight Council's 2013 Annual Report. And I strongly believe that today's proposing release reveals how true that statement is. While all rule releases reflect the work and expertise of many people around the Commission, the product that is before the Commission today is a prime example of collaboration, harnessing expertise from all corners of the agency including staff from a variety of Divisions and Offices and each of the Commissioners and their staffs. Since the beginning of the year, the Commissioners and the staff have been heavily engaged in developing this proposal - committed not just to getting it done, but to getting it done in the right way - a proposal that analyzes the range of alternatives for money market fund reform; a proposal based on a careful analysis of available data by SEC economists, working side by side with the subject matter experts in the Division of Investment Management; a proposal that addresses the risks that money market funds may present to the financial system; and, perhaps most significant, a proposal that addresses the Commission's core mission of protecting investors. Let me touch upon these aspects.
