Acceptance of Public Submissions on the Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and the Rulemakings That Will Be Proposed by the Commission

概要

The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act ("Dodd-Frank Act") was enacted on July 21, 2010. The Dodd-Frank Act, among other things, will bring comprehensive regulation to the over- the-counter ("OTC") derivatives marketplace for the first time. The Commodity Futures Trading Commission ("CFTC" or "Commission") will be implementing the Dodd-Frank Act by adopting rules to regulate the OTC derivatives market. The Commission welcomes the views of interested parties on the Dodd-Frank Act and the rulemakings that it will implement thereunder. The views of interested parties may be considered in the pre-proposal process but will not be treated as official comments on specific proposed rulemakings. As discussed in this notice, the Commission has made electronic mailboxes available for any submissions interested parties wish to make. Interested parties are advised that all submissions will be published on the Commission's Web site without review and without removal of the submitter's identifying information.
