Jimmy Garg Comment On Regulatory Notice 22-08

I, not regulators, should be able to choose the public investments that are right for me. Public investments should be available to all of the public, not just the privileged. I shouldn't have to go through any special process like passing a test before I can invest in public securities, like leveraged and inverse funds. I am capable of understanding leveraged and inverse funds and their risks. I do not need these measures imposed on me. Leveraged and inverse funds are important to my investment strategies. They help me protect my investments or seek enhanced returns.

Timothy Straus Comment On Regulatory Notice 22-08

To Whom It May Concern, After learning of the proposed regulations to limit access to leveraged and inverse funds, I am reaching out to make the following known: I believe that as an investor it is my sole responsibility to understand the funds I am investing in. I use leveraged funds as an important part of my portfolio to hedge against certain risks. I do not believe it is right that access to leveraged or inverse funds be limited to accredited (high net worth) investors. Leveraged funds are a minor, but important part of my own portfolio currently, and I am not an accredited investor.
