CFTC RIN: 3038-AD57 Publication ID: Spring 2013 
Title: Cross-Border Application of Certain Swap Requirements  
Abstract: Section 2(i) of the Commodity Exchange Act, which was enacted by section 722(d) of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection (Dodd-Frank Act) provides that the swap-related provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act shall not apply to activities outside the United States unless those activities "have a direct and significant connection with activities in, or effect on, commerce of the United States," or contravene rules or regulations that the CFTC may promulgate to prevent evasion. The CFTC proposed guidance to clarify under what circumstances, certain foreign swap-related activities would meet that standard.
