Commission Also Approves Final Rule on Aggregation of Positions
The U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) today voted unanimously to repropose regulations implementing limits on speculative futures and swaps positions as called for in the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (Dodd-Frank Act). In a separate vote, CFTC approved final aggregation regulations, which are a key component of the CFTC’s existing position limits regime. The reproposal will be open for public comment for 60 days after publication in the Federal Register.
