Statement Of CFTC Chairman Timothy G. Massad In Support Of Adoption Of Amendments To CFTC Regulation 1.22 (Residual Interest Deadline For Futures Commission Merchants)
Today we are finalizing a change to a rule that concerns one of the most important objectives of the Commission, which is to protect customer funds. In addition, today’s action reflects one of my key priorities since taking office, which is to make sure our rules do not impose undue burdens or unintended consequences for the nonfinancial commercial businesses that depend on the derivatives markets to hedge commercial risks.

Statement Of CFTC Commissioner Mark P. Wetjen In Support Of Adoption Of Amendments To CFTC Regulation 1.22 (Residual Interest Deadline For Futures Commission Merchants)
In the fall of 2013, the Commission made some important changes to rule 1.22, to which registered futures commission merchants (FCMs) are subject. The revision to this rule, known as the “residual-interest requirement”, clarified that one customer’s funds could not be used by an FCM to cover another customer’s margin deficit, but phased in a deadline for stricter compliance with this clarified standard. The change was designed to reduce risks to those customer funds placed in the care of FCMs, and were among a host of regulatory enhancements adopted by the Commission after two failures of large, registered FCMs in 2011 and 2012 – MF Global and Peregrine Financial.

Statement Of CFTC Commissioner J. Christopher Giancarlo In Support Of Adoption Of Amendments To CFTC Regulation 1.22 (Residual Interest Deadline For Futures Commission Merchants)
I support the Commission’s action to change the residual interest deadline, if necessary or appropriate, only upon a Commission rulemaking following a public comment period. This approach will allow the Commission to better understand the market impacts and operational challenges of moving the residual interest deadline. This approach is especially important given the likely negative impacts on smaller futures commission merchants who provide our farmers, ranchers and rural producers with critical risk management services.
