SIFMA joined the Managed Funds Association, U.S. Chamber of Commerce, American Cotton Shippers Association, International Swaps and Derivatives Association and Investment Company Institute today in issuing the following statement on the importance of keeping U.S. financial markets open:
“The U.S. financial markets are critical infrastructure to our nation, and they continue to function as designed despite the volatility caused by the coronavirus. Keeping all U.S. financial markets open is essential to the well-being of the general economy and vital to maintaining and bolstering investor confidence, particularly once the economy recovers from effects of this pandemic.”
