Title: ●Amendments To Adapt Certain CFTC Regulations to the Dodd-Frank Act 
Abstract: The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act established a comprehensive new statutory framework for swaps and security-based swaps. The Dodd-Frank Act repeals some sections of the Commodity Exchange Act, amends others and adds a number of new provisions. The DFA also requires the Commodity Futures Trading Commission to promulgate a number of rules to implement the new framework. The Commission has proposed numerous rules to satisfy its obligations under the DFA. Because the Dodd-Frank Act effects so many changes to the existing statutory and regulatory frameworks, the proposed rules would make a number of conforming changes to the CFTC's regulations to more fully integrate them with the new statutory and regulatory framework.
