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.

won an Academy Award in 1996; 

Whereas Mrs. Weissmann Klein’s lifelong work has been to

a nonprofit organization that teaches today’s youth to appreciate and celebrate the majesty of their American citizenship; 

Whereas Mrs. Weissmann Klein’s life and work have inspired 

generations of Americans and countless individuals from 

around the world; and

Core Principles and Other Requirements for Swap Execution Facilities

Questions & Answers

What is the goal of the rulemaking?

The final rulemaking implements Section 733 of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act 

of 2010 (Dodd-Frank Act), which added Section 5h of the Commodity Exchange Act (CEA) governing the 

registration and operation of swap execution facilities (SEFs). 

Who is affected by the rulemaking?

The final rulemaking affects trading systems and platforms for the trading of swaps, market participants trading 

swaps, intermediaries facilitating the trading of swaps, and other registered entities or registrants under the CEA. 

How does the rulemaking implement the applicable provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act?

The final rulemaking implements the relevant provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act by adopting regulations, guidance, 

and acceptable practices applicable to SEFs under Part 37 of Title 17 of the Code of Federal Regulations. The 

regulations, guidance, and acceptable practices incorporate the CEA’s SEF definition, trade execution requirement, 

and core principles applicable to SEFs.

What are some examples of the requirements in the rulemaking?

The final rulemaking adopts many requirements for SEFs. Some examples include:

 A SEF application form, Form SEF, with a comprehensive list of instructions and documents that must 

accompany applications for registration as a SEF.

 The rules require SEFs to meet a minimum trading functionality requirement.

 The rules require SEFs to provide impartial access to their markets to any eligible contract participant and 

any independent software vendor.

 To prevent market disruptions, the rules require that SEFs implement trade risk control mechanisms, 

including pauses and halts to trading, under certain conditions.

 The rules require SEFs to meet specified financial resource requirements.

 The rules require SEFs to establish operational and system safeguard requirements. 
Commodity Futures Trading Commission ♦ Office of Public Affairs ♦ 202-418-5080 

When will the regulations, guidance, and acceptable practices take effect?

The regulations, guidance, and acceptable practices will take effect 60 days after publication of the final rules in the 

Federal Register. The Commission is using its discretion to set a general compliance date of 120 days subsequent to 

Federal Register publication.
