As a part of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the “Dodd-Frank Act”) derivatives, including interest rate swaps, are subject to the regulation by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) and the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). This webinar discusses what this means for the municipal market, including the rules and regulations that pertain to “Special Entities” and the disclosure and reporting requirements under GASB 53.
