    Regulation of Retail Forex
    RIN 3038-AC61
    From: Jeff Grossman in Abington, MA
    The purpose of an independent broker is to help a customer realize the best entity to meet his or her needs. A mortgage
    broker may determine that Chase can give me the best deal, or that Citi is the best bet for my mortgage, or that Bank of
    America can best help me. An independent Forex Broker should be able to act similarly. Forcing IB's to be guaranteed by an
    individual broker basically takes this service out of the market and will, in essence, force the consumer to independently hope
    they fully understand what each broker can offer. Your rule will actually hang the retail forex trader out to dry rather than
    help him. Please reconsider this seemingly ridiculous rule.
