Abstract: Section 742(c)(2) of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act amended the Commodity Exchange Act to provide that a U.S. financial institution for which there is a federal regulatory agency shall not enter into, or offer to enter into, a transaction described in section 2(c)(2)(B)(i)(I) of the CEA with a retail customer except pursuant to a rule or regulation of a Federal regulatory agency allowing the transaction under such terms and conditions as the Federal regulatory agency shall prescribe (a retail forex rule). The FDIC has proposed a retail forex rule that sets forth appropriate requirements (including certain reporting, recordkeeping and disclosure requirements) for FDIC-supervised institutions engaged in such transactions.
