Concurrence Statement On The Order Regarding The Effective Date For Swap Regulation - CFTC Commissioner Scott D. O’Malia

Date 15/07/2011

I concur with the Commission’s decision to use its exemptive authority under section 4(c) of the Commodity Exchange Act (CEA) to provide temporary relief from certain provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act. This order will provide much needed legal certainty to the market, at least until December 31, 2011, while the Commission continues its efforts to adopt final rules under the Dodd-Frank Act. Whereas I support the Commission in providing legal certainty, albeit limited, I am disappointed in the lack of harmonization between our order and the exemptive relief that the Securities and Exchange Commission (S.E.C.) provided. I am also disappointed that the final order ignored a number of comments from market participants, those that have most at stake in each of the Commission’s decisions. I hope that this order does not foreshadow the direction of final rulemakings to come.
