Re: No loopholes in Dodd-Frank

1) Securities and Exchange Commission/Commodities Futures Trading Commission, Re: Commercial Risk (CFTC RIN

3235-AK65, SEC File Number $7-12-10)

Dear Commissioners Shapiro and Gensler: Don’t let the American Bankers Association (ABA) redefine important terms like

"commercial risk" to keep banks that engage in risky derivatives trading from complying with transparency and business

conduct requirements. Commercial risk should not be expanded to include financial risk. Accepting the ABA argument

would open the door for exemptions for risky hedge funds and insurance companies.

2) Commodities Futures Trading Commission, Re: Position Limits (RIN 3038-AD 17 )

Dear Commissioner Gensler: The CFTC needs to set strong position limits to crack down on the energy and food commodity

speculation that serves no productive purpose. I urge the Commission to define limits that will address not only manipulation,

but also excessive speculation, which will require a stricter approach.

3) U.S. Department of the Treasury, Re: FX Swaps (75 FR 66426 Document Number 2010-27274)

Dear Secretary Geithner: Just say "no" to foreign exchange traders who want to exempt foreign currency derivatives from the

clearing and transparency requirements of the

Dodd-Frank Act. $4 trillion dollars a day is traded in these highly-leveraged swaps and this number may increase to over $10

trillion in a decade. As the head of the Financial

Stability Oversight Board your job is to decrease risk in the system, not encourage off-book trading and opaque markets.

Question referred

Are the provisions of Article 1 of the Third Motor Insurance Directive (1) to be interpreted as meaning that, in the event of a road-traffic accident ... Portuguese civil law — and in particular Articles 503(1), 504, 505 and 570 of the Civil Code — may not exclude or limit the right to compensation of a child, himself a victim of the accident, on the sole ground that that child was partly, or even exclusively, responsible for the loss caused?

Q & A – Proposed Rules Regarding Margin for Uncleared Swaps 

Would the proposed rules impose margin requirements on commercial end users? 

No. The rules would not impose any margin requirements on commercial end users, defined under the proposed 

rules as non-financial entities. The proposed rules would distinguish between financial entities and non-financial 

entities. The definition of financial entity is based on section 2(h)(7)(C) of the Commodity Exchange Act, which 

addresses the exemption from mandatory clearing. An SD/MSP would collect initial and variation margin from a 

non-financial entity only to the extent the parties had mutually agreed to this in their privately-negotiated credit 

support arrangements. 

Would commercial end users be permitted to post non-cash collateral with SD/MSPs? 

Yes. Commercial end user, defined as non-financial entities, would be permitted to post non-cash collateral to the 

extent permitted in their privately-negotiated credit support arrangements. 

What products would the proposed rules cover? 

The rules would apply to uncleared swaps entered into after the effective date of the regulation. The proposal 

would not apply retroactively. 

Did the Commission consult with other US authorities in developing these rules? 

Yes. Staff of the Commission consulted with staff of the Federal Reserve Board, the Office of the Comptroller of 

the Currency, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, the Farm Credit Administration, and the Federal 

Housing Finance Agency (collectively, the prudential regulators) in developing these rules. Staff of the Securities 

and Exchange Commission also participated in these consultations. The Commission and the prudential regulators 

have attempted to make their respective proposals comparable to the maximum extent practicable.
