  • Remarks Before The Institute Of International Bankers, Annual Washington Conference - CFTC Commissioner Jill E. Sommers

    Date 07/03/2011

    Thank you for inviting me here today to discuss the new regulatory landscape for swaps transactions under the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act. It seems your annual Washington conference could not have come at a better time to hear from legislators and regulators on the implementation of Dodd Frank. To say that the Act presents a large number of complex issues for market participants and regulators is an understatement. At my last count, the Commission had published 55 proposed rules, notices, or other requests seeking public comment on Dodd-Frank related issues. Other important items on our agenda, including proposed rules setting capital and margin requirements for swap dealers (SDs) and major swap participants (MSPs), and a joint proposal with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) defining swaps and security-based swaps, remain in the queue. Given our limited time this afternoon, I will focus on just a few of the issues that I believe are of particular interest to this organization.

MEPs also inserted a requirement that short sale transactions be reported less often, but beefed up the rules to ensure that fines are dissuasive.
