Public Reporting by Operators of Certain Large Commodity Pools

In April of 1999, the President's Working Group on Financial Markets (comprised of the Secretary of the Treasury, the Chairman of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, the Chairman of the Securities and Exchange Commission, and the Chairman of the Commodity Futures Trading Commission) (the "PWG") issued a report entitled "Hedge Funds, Leverage, and the Lessons of Long Term Capital Management: Report of The President's Working Group on Financial Markets" (the "PWG Report"). This report reviewed the events surrounding the near-collapse of Long Term Capital Portfolio, L.P. The PWG Report contained eight recommendations. The first was that "more frequent and meaningful information on hedge funds should be made public" and the fourth was that "regulators should encourage improvements in the risk management systems of regulated entities." In furtherance of the first objective, the report specifically recommended that commodity pool operators ("CPOs") of large commodity pools should file quarterly reports, that these reports should "include more meaningful and comprehensive measures of market risk" such as "value at risk" and that these reports be published.

Clearing Requirement Determination Under Section 2(h) of the Commodity Exchange Act for Interest Rate Swaps To Account for CAD and MXN Interest Rate Benchmark Transitions

The Commodity Futures Trading Commission (Commission or CFTC) is amending its interest rate swap clearing requirement regulations under applicable provisions of the Commodity Exchange Act (CEA) to address the transition from the Canadian Dollar Offered Rate (CDOR) to the Canadian Overnight Repo Rate Average (CORRA), and the transition from the Mexican Interbank Equilibrium Interest Rate (la Tasa de Inter[eacute]s Interbancaria de Equilibrio, or TIIE by its Spanish acronym) to the TIIE Funding Rate (TIIE de Fondeo or F-TIIE), as benchmark reference rates for interest rate swaps denominated, respectively, in Canadian dollars (CAD) and Mexican pesos (MXN). These transitions are part of an ongoing global effort by market participants, benchmark administrators, regulators, and others to shift away from reliance on certain interbank offered rates (IBORs) that have become unavailable as benchmark reference rates and adopt alternative reference rates, which are predominantly overnight, nearly risk-free reference rates (RFRs). These amendments revise the set of interest rate swaps that are required to be submitted for clearing, pursuant to the CEA and the Commission's regulations, to a deri

Commodity Pool Operators and Commodity Trading Advisors: Reduction of Duplicative Regulation Through Intermediary Registration Exemptions; Expansion of the Exemption for Small Commodity Pools

The Commodity Futures Trading Commission ("Commission" or "CFTC") is proposing several amendments to its registration requirements for certain commodity pool operators ("CPOs") and commodity trading advisors ("CTAs") to reduce duplicative and overlapping regulation and reflect inflation ("Proposal"). The Proposal would add an exemption from CPO registration for certain investment advisers registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("Registered Investment Advisers" or "RIAs") in relation to commodity pools for which the participants are limited to certain sophisticated investors and which meet other conditions; add a related registration exemption for CTAs; and increase the total gross capital contributions threshold in the CPO registration exemption for small commodity pools (commonly referred to as the "Small Pool Exemption") to account for inflation. The Commission preliminarily intends for the Proposal, if adopted, to supersede certain no-action positions issued by the Commission's Market Participants Division ("MPD").
