COMMODITY FUTURES TRADING

COMMISSION

Financial Products Advisory

Committee Meeting

This is to give notice, pursuant to

section 10(a) of the Federal Advisory

Committee Act, 5 U.S.C. App. 2 section

10(a) and 41 CFR 101–6.1015(b), that

the Commodity Futures Trading

Commission’s Financial Products

Advisory Committee will conduct a

public meeting in the Lower Level

Hearing Room (B–1) at the

Commission’s Washington, DC

headquarters located at 2033 K Street,

NW., Washington, DC 20581, on March

30, 1995, beginning at 1:30 p.m. and

lasting until 5:00 p.m. FPAC members

will be meeting to discuss the

international competitiveness of the

U.S. derivatives industry and the

adequacy of the current regulatory

structure to meet the needs of U.S.

futures exchanges and derivatives

market participants vis-a-vis their

foreign competitors.

The FPAC will discuss how possible

changes in the regulatory framework

could help or hinder U.S.

competitiveness, including such issues

as whether greater regulatory

consolidation would ease regulatory

burdens; whether increased regulatory

oversight of OTC derivatives markets in

the U.S. will create a competitive

disadvantage for U.S. firms; and the

relative strengths and weaknesses of

product-based versus institution-based

regulation to meet the long term needs

of the U.S. derivatives industry.

Representatives of key congressional

committees have been invited to make

presentations and participate in this

discussion.

FPAC members will also discuss the

strengths and weaknesses of conducting

business in the U.S. as compared to

other jurisdictions from the perspective

of end-users, futures commission

merchants, OTC derivative dealers, and

managed funds. FPAC will also hear

from exchange representatives regarding

the competitive challenges created by

the growth of foreign futures exchanges.

Finally, FPAC will discuss prospects for

the development of global standards for

derivatives oversight, in the wake of the

collapse of Barings PLC.

The purpose of this meeting is to

solicit the views of the Committee on

these agenda matters. The Advisory

Committee was created by the

Commodity Futures Trading

Commission for the purpose of advising

the Commission on the assessment of

issues concerning individuals and

industries interested in or affected by
