The mission of the Derivatives and Structured Products Law Committee is to
apprise members of developments in laws relating to the futures and derivatives
markets and to maintain liaisons with trade associations, industry leaders, and
representatives of governmental and regulatory bodies, such as the SEC, the
CFTC, and the Federal Reserve System. Over the past year, the Committee has
hosted meetings that brought the membership valuable information and interaction
with important figures directly or indirectly involved in the futures and
derivatives markets. Based on their positive experiences to date, members are
seeking to expand membership by continuing to refine this mission and by sharing
their experience with colleagues and contacts.
Our Committee meets one day each month, typically around
lunchtime, during which time we have presentations by members and guest speakers
covering a variety of intriguing topics relating to the futures and derivatives
markets. We also seek out opportunities to prepare comment letters and
articles.
If you are interested in joining our Committee, you may join
here. When completing your membership in the Association, be sure to elect
to join the Business Law Section and the Derivatives and Structured Products Law
Committee.
