  • Statement Of CFTC Commissioner Dan M. Berkovitz Regarding Notices Of Proposed Rulemaking For Certain Matters Related To Margin For Uncleared Swaps

    Date 14/08/2020

    I support issuing for public comments two notices of proposed rulemaking to improve the operation of the CFTC’s Margin Rule.  The Margin Rule requires certain swap dealers (“SDs”) and major swap participants (“MSPs”) to post and collect initial and variation margin for uncleared swaps.  The Margin Rule is critical to mitigating risks in the financial system that might otherwise arise from uncleared swaps.  I support a strong Margin Rule, and I look forward to public comments on the proposals, including whether certain elements of the proposals could increase risk to the financial system and how the final rule should address such risks.
