ALLEN* In April 1985, the North American Securities Administrators Association adopted the Model State Commodity Code. The Model Code is designed to regulate off-exchange futures and options contracts, forward contracts, and other contracts for the sale of physical commodities but not exchange-traded commodity futures contracts or exchange-traded commodity options. Specif- ically, the Model Code addresses the problem of boiler-rooms and bucket shops-that is, the fraudulent sale of commodities to the investing public.

  • Corporate and Financial Weekly Digest)
    June 4, 2010 SEC/CORPORATE SEC Chairman Issues Statement on GAAP-IFRS Convergence Project On June 2, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) and the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) announced modifications to their timetable for, and prioritization of, standards being developed by these boards in connection with improving U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and achieving convergence of GAAP and IFRS. According to the joint statement issued by the FASB and IASB, these boards had previously set June 2011 as the target date for completing all major convergence projects. During the past few months, stakeholders voiced concerns about their ability to provide input on the large number of exposure drafts of standards planned for publication in the second quarter of this year. In response, the FASB and IASB are developing a modified strategy to take account of these concerns that would prioritize certain major projects and stagger publication of exposure drafts, resulting in the extension of the target completion dates for some convergence projects to the second half of 2011. The Securities and Exchange Commission’s Chairman, Mary Schapiro, issued a statement on June 2 in which she indicated that the modification by the FASB and IASB to the timing for completion of certain convergence projects should not impact the SEC staff’s analyses under the Work Plan issued by the SEC in February 2010, the results of which will aid the SEC in its evaluation of the impact that the use of IFRS by U.S. issuers would have on the U.S.

Dennis Hastert The Speaker United States House of Representatives Washington, D.C. 20515 Dear Mr. Speaker: We are pleased to transmit the report of the President’s Working Group on Financial Markets on Hedge Funds, Leverage, and the Lessons of Long-Term Capital Management (LTCM). The principal policy issue arising out of the events surrounding the near collapse of LTCM is how to constrain excessive leverage. By increasing the chance that problems at one financial institution could be transmitted to other institutions, excessive leverage can increase the likelihood of a general breakdown in the functioning of financial markets. This issue is not limited to hedge funds; other financial institutions are often larger and more highly leveraged than most hedge funds. In view of our findings, the Working Group recommends a number of measures designed to constrain excessive leverage. These measures are designed to improve transparency in the system, enhance private sector risk management practices, develop more risk-sensitive approaches to capital adequacy, support financial contract netting in the event of bankruptcy, and encourage offshore financial centers to comply with international standards. The LTCM incident highlights a number of tax issues with respect to hedge funds, including the tax treatment of total return equity swaps and the use of offshore financial centers.
