Keynote Address Of CFTC Commissioner J. Christopher Giancarlo Before The 7th Annual Capital Link Global Commodities, Energy & Shipping Forum, New York, NY, Good Intentions Do Not Always Lead To Good Regulations

Date 16/09/2015

Introduction

Good morning ladies and gentlemen. Thank you for your warm welcome.

Before I begin, let me say that my remarks reflect my own views and do not necessarily constitute the views of the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC or Commission), my fellow CFTC commissioners or the CFTC staff.

It is a pleasure to attend this conference that brings together so many important participants in the global commodity, energy and shipping markets. As some of you know, before I became a regulator I served for over a dozen years as a senior executive of a firm that operated markets for these important asset classes, including wet and dry freight contracts. So, I have an appreciation of the issues that you are discussing today. I also know how the business world approaches market issues. That is, with pragmatism. Problems are solved and commercial needs are met with smart thinking, lots of careful planning and precise execution.
