With game-changing regulations on the horizon, keeping your compliance program up-to-date has never been more daunting.
As the Obama Administration starts to flex its muscles, enforcement actions are on the rise. FERC and CFTC are waging a battle over jurisdiction of certain types of transactions, which will surely lead to overlapping jurisdiction. It is imperative that you are aware of all regulations so that your compliance program can be responsive. Moreover, the financial reform bill that is pending in Congress will introduce a new set of regulations with which you will be required to comply, and will likely lead to a major change in the way OTC swaps and derivatives are traded. Adding further confusion, FERC recently released new penalty guidelines, modeled after the federal sentencing guidelines, and then within a matter of weeks retracted them and opened up the process for comments.
How can you effectively establish a compliance program when so many of the regulations and standards are still changing?
Now in its fourth year, ACI’s Energy Trading Compliance conference offers an unprecedented speaker faculty of government regulators from FERC and FTC, as well as the leading in-house and outside attorneys who are tuned into these coming changes. Attend this conference to hear from them as they share their insights into the current state of the energy trading space, as well as proven strategies for preparing a compliance program that will be responsive to all of these uncertain, but imminent, regulatory changes.
Attend the only energy trading compliance conference that looks ahead and offers measurable strategies and tactics to ensure that compliance programs fit seamlessly into the new regulatory landscape.
ACI’s Energy Trading Compliance conference is the premier forum that brings together regulators, in-house compliance counsel, and the leading energy trading attorneys (many of whom previously worked for FERC, CFTC, and FTC) to share insights and strategies to prepare for changing standards and comply with existing regulations.
