Abstract:
Section 731 of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (“Dodd-Frank Act”), P.L. 111-203, 124 stat. 1376, amended the Commodity Exchange Act (“CEA”), 7 U.S.C. §§ 1 et seq., to add, as section 4s(e) thereof, provisions concerning the setting of minimum capital requirements for swap dealers (“SDs”) and major swap participants (“MSPs”). Accordingly, this collection is being amended to reflect the reporting and recordkeeping requirements associated with the Commission’s proposed capital and margin rules for SDs and MSPs, as well as with proposed conforming rules for FCMs that will operate as SDs. The collections of information that are proposed by this rulemaking are necessary to implement Section 4s(e) of the CEA, which expressly requires the Commission to adopt rules governing capital requirements for SDs and MSPs. Also, the information and documentation requirements to make the capital comparability determinations would be necessary for the Commission to consider whether the requirements of the foreign rules are comparable to the applicable requirements of the Commission’s rules with respect to capital adequacy and financial reporting requirements for SDs or MSPs.

Collection 3038-0024 is being amended to reflect these additional information requirements.
