We must not broaden this narrow, commonsense exception to include financial and commercial institutions that want to gamble in the derivatives markets. Doing so would allow systemically important companies to enter into risky trades in a market with zero transparency and accountability.
This is exactly the kind of murky shadow banking that led to the meltdown - as every objective observer of our present financial situation well knows. Please implement Dodd-Frank as written and do not give in to the pressure to weaken the legislation in the rulemaking process.
Thank you!
