Feinstein
Amendment Defeated
On November 5, the US
Senate voted (56 to 41), to again defeat Senator Feinstein's market
oversight amendment that would have made sweeping changes to existing
law. ISDA led an industry coalition opposing the amendment and coordinated
a joint trade association response letter to the Senate. ISDA is
grateful for all the support of members who contributed time and
effort to this important regulatory issue. The result of the Senate
vote demonstrates congressional support for upholding the legal
framework for swaps and preserving the ability of companies to use
swaps to manage risk.
