Provisions Common to Registered Entities

Commodity Futures Trading Commission published this rule in the Federal Register on Jul 27, 2011.

Abstract

The Commodity Futures Trading Commission ("Commission") is adopting regulations to implement certain statutory provisions of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act ("Dodd-Frank Act"). The Commission also is amending its existing regulations governing the submission of new products, rules, and rule amendments. The final regulations establish the Commission's procedural framework for the submission of new products, rules, and rule amendments by designated contract markets ("DCMs"), derivatives clearing organizations ("DCOs"), swap execution facilities ("SEFs"), and swap data repositories ("SDRs"). In addition, the final regulations prohibit event contracts involving certain excluded commodities, establish special submission procedures for certain rules proposed by systemically important derivatives clearing organizations ("SIDCOs"), and stay the certifications and the approval review periods of novel derivative products pending jurisdictional determinations.
