Abstract: The Commodity Exchange Act ("CEA") as amended by the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the "Dodd-Frank Act") requires swap dealers and major swap participants to comply with certain duties. The Proposed regulations would require recordkeeping in relation to these duties and filing of risk management policies and reports with the Commission. The Commission will use this information to assess compliance with Commission regulations. The Commission is proposing amendments to its regulations to establish additional standards for compliance with the derivatives clearing organization (DCO) core principles set forth in Section 5b(c)(2) of the Commodity Exchange Act for systemically important DCOs (SIDCO) and DCOs that elect to opt-in to the SIDCO regulatory requirements which would comport with certain international standards. The additional requirements would address any remaining gaps between the Commissions existing regulations and the Principles for Financial Market Infrastructures published by the Committee on Payment and Settlement Systems and the Board of the International Organization of Securities Commissions. The proposed regulations include recordkeeping and reporting requirements that would be collections of information requiring approval under the PRA, which is being sought by amending collection 3038-0081.
