Chicago Mercantile Exchange: Proposed Amendments to the Cash Settlement Provisions of the CME Brazilian Real Futures Contract
Traduction automatique locale · Langue originale de la source
Résumé
The Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME or Exchange) has submitted proposed amendments related to the cash settlement provisions of its Brazilian Real futures contract. Under the proposal, the CME proposes to adopt procedures to set an alternative cash settlement price in the event the Central Bank of Brazil does not determine and/or the SISBACEN does not disseminate the official average offer rate of Brazilian reais per U.S. dollar on the last day of trading. That alternative cash settlement price would be based on the results of the CME survey of financial institutions inside of Brazil who are active in the Brazilian reais per commercial U.S. dollar spot and/or non- deliverable forward (NDF) markets. The Acting Director of the Division of Economic Analysis (Division) of the Commission, acting pursuant to the authority delegated by Commission Regulation 140.96, has determined that publication of the proposals for comment is in the public interest, will assist the Commission in considering the views of interested persons, and is consistent with the purpose of the Commodity Exchange Act.
