Dalian Commodity Exchange Will Drive The Futures Market To Develop Further At Three Aspects
According to related persons in charge of DCE when interviewing with China Securities Journal, China’s futures market has relatively poor capacity to serve the national economy, and cannot satisfy the requirements of a large number of enterprises for hedging and avoiding risks. We should further improve the efficiency of the market and play the role of the market functions to serve the national economy, and further drive the development of the futures market for the purpose of optimizing the allocation of resources.

Former Bank CEO Sentenced To 15 Years in Prison For Fraud Scheme
Joseph M. Braas, 46, of Lititz, Pa., was sentenced today to 180 months in prison for his role in a fraud conspiracy that caused the Bank of Lancaster County, which was chartered in 1863 and is one of the five oldest banking organizations in the country, to cease its independent existence. As a result of the fraud, hundreds of jobs were lost. Braas was chief operating officer of Equipment Finance LLC (EFI), when he and his co-defendants—Michael J. Schlager, Mary C. Stankiewicz, Misty L. Kroesen, Curtis A. Kroesen, John Wiley Spann, Harold W. Young and John S. Tomberlin—engaged in a sophisticated loan fraud scheme that caused losses of approximately $53 million at EFI. In addition to the prison term, U.S. District Court Judge Paul S.

ISDA Commentary On August 31 Compromise Texts On MiFID2/MiFIR
This paper has been produced by the International Swaps and Derivatives Association (ISDA) in order to help inform on-going European Council discussions on MiFID2/MiFIR. Some of these points will be familiar from previous ISDA commentaries; new points are therefore shaded in grey. In summary, we make the following points:
Pre-trade transparency for non-equities trading venues (MiFIR Articles 7 and 8)
- We strongly welcome the clear link that is now made between the scope of transparency requirements under Article 7 and OTC derivatives contracts that are subject to the derivatives trading obligation.
- We are supportive of the new provisions allowing for suspension of transparency requirements in certain situations.
- There should be a clearer recognition of the importance of Request-For-Quote or voice trading for OTC derivatives markets, in support of the move to exchange and electronic trading.
