Supplemental Comments on Federal Power Act Section 203 Blanket Authorizations for Investment Companies (SIFMA AMG)
SIFMA AMG provided comments to the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission replying to certain comments filed in the Notice of Inquiry…
SIFMA AMG provided comments to European Banking Authority (EBA) on designing a new prudential regime for investment firms. The current prudential regime applicable to investment firms is outdated and inappropriately tailored for the range of investment firms to which it applies. Our view is that a new regime has the potential to produce a sensible result for investment firms, provided it is designed in a way which appropriately addresses the critical distinctions and operational technicalities of the wide range of investment firms to which it will apply.
While we are broadly supportive of the mandate to redesign the regime, we are concerned that some of the EBA’s proposals are at odds with the unique characteristics of the asset management industry. Specifically, the categorization of investment firms and the capital proxies, which represent the risk of harm to others, together with their associated metrics, are not appropriate for asset management firms.
