Derivatives & CFTC Reauthorization

SIFMA provides comments to the U.S. Senate Agriculture Committee supporting the reauthorization of the Commodity Exchange Act (CEA), and thus the reauthorization of Commodity Futures Trading Commission (the CFTC) 

SIFMA encourages the Committee to consider the impact of how regulators, specifically the CFTC, are interpreting and proposing to implement the Dodd-Frank Act, which created a new regulatory regime for derivative products commonly referred to as swaps.
