II, the Commission is publishing this 

notice to announce the reestablishment 

of the GMAC. The Commission has 

determined that the reestablishment of 

the GMAC is necessary and in the 

public interest. The objectives and 

scope of activities of the GMAC are to 

conduct public meetings and to submit 

reports and recommendations on 

matters of public concern to the 

exchanges, firms, market users, and the 

Commission regarding the regulatory 

challenges of a global marketplace. The 

GMAC will help the Commission 

determine how it can avoid unnecessary 

regulatory or operational impediments 

to global business while still preserving 

core protections for customers and other 

market participants. The GMAC will 

also make recommendations for 

appropriate international standards for 

regulating futures and derivatives 

markets, as well as intermediaries. 

Additionally, the GMAC will assist the 

Commission in assessing the impact on 

U.S. markets and firms of the 

Commission’s international efforts and 

the initiatives of foreign regulators and 

market authorities. The GMAC will also 

identify methods to improve both 

domestic and international regulatory 

structures while continuing to allow 

U.S. markets and firms to remain 

competitive in the global market. The 

GMAC’s objectives and activities will 

allow the Commission to better promote 

its mission of protecting market users 

and the public from abusive practices, 

and help to foster open, competitive, 

and financially sound futures and 

options markets. Meetings of the GMAC 

are open to the public. 

The GMAC will operate for two years 

from the date of reestablishment unless, 

before the expiration of that time period, 

its charter is renewed in accordance 

with section 14(b)(1) of the FACA, or 

the Commission directs that the GMAC 

terminate on an earlier date. A copy of 

the GMAC reestablishment charter will 

be filed with the Commission; the 

Senate Committee on Agriculture, 

Nutrition and Forestry; the House 

Committee on Agriculture; the Library 

of Congress; and the General Services 

Administration’s Committee 

Management Secretariat. A copy of the 

reestablishment charter will be posted 

on the Commission’s Web site at 

www.cftc.gov.
