| E9-6187 | Concept Release on Whether To Eliminate the Bona Fide Hedge Exemption for Certain Swap Dealers and Create a New Limited Risk Management Exemption From Speculative Position Limits | Proposed Rule | In June and July of 2008, the Commodity Futures Trading Commission ("Commission") issued a special call for information from swap dealers and index traders regarding their over-the-counter ("OTC") market activities. In September of 2008, the Commission released a "Staff Report on Commodity Swap Dealers and Index Traders with Commission Recommendations" (the "September 2008 Report") with several preliminary Commission recommendations. Recommendation five of the September 2008 Report directs the staff to develop an advance notice of proposed rulemaking that would review whether to eliminate the bona fide hedge exemption for swap dealers and replace it with a limited risk management exemption that is conditioned upon, among other things, an obligation to report to the CFTC and applicable self- regulatory organizations when certain noncommercial swap clients reach a certain position level and/or a certification that none of a swap dealer's noncommercial swap clients exceed specified position limits in related exchange-regulated commodities.\1\ --------------------------------------------------------------------------- | 2009-03-24 | 2009 | 3 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2009/03/24/E9-6187/concept-release-on-whether-to-eliminate-the-bona-fide-hedge-exemption-for-certain-swap-dealers-and | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2009-03-24/pdf/E9-6187.pdf | Commodity Futures Trading Commission | 77 | In June and July of 2008, the Commodity Futures Trading Commission ("Commission") issued a special call for information from swap dealers and index traders regarding their over-the-counter ("OTC") market activities.
