Short Statement:
The Commission believes that the amendments to the exclusions and exemptions available to commodity pool operators and commodity trading advisors under sections 4.5, 4.13, and 4.14 align with the intent and purpose of the Dodd-Frank Act. Requiring registration of entities engaged in more than a de minimis amount of commodity interest trading will result in greater transparency with respect to derivatives market participants.
