While I am not 100% opposed to new regulation on these complex products, I do want to caution that this could cause unintended consequences. For example, if I could not access leverage through options or through leveraged ETP's, both of my brokers currently charge me 8% or more on margin interest.
How does this help me to pay over 7% more than the Fed Funds rate? It helps and protects
To Whom it May Concern: I am writing in opposition to SEC Proposed Rule #S7-24-15 which would place unduly burdensome restrictions on persons wishing to invest in leveraged an inverse funds. This rule would require passing a test, showing high net worth, "cooling off" periods and other impediments that would do nothing to address the risk that regulators perceive in these investments.
