Title: Position Report for Physical Commodity Swaps 
Abstract: The Commission has been mandated by Congress (in the Dodd-Frank Act) to impose position limits on futures and swaps relating to exempt and agricultural commodities. A separate rulemaking will establish swap data repositories to allow proper surveillance of the interconnected commodity derivatives markets and enforce these position limits. In the interim, the Commission has proposed reporting regulations to attain the necessary positional data.
