The letter applies to qualifying Australian licensed financial markets (QALMs) regulated by the Australian Securities & Investments Commission.

The letter modifies the staff letters to remove the reporting conditions related to Parts 43 and 45. Consistent with this removal, reporting counterparties will undertake the applicable reporting obligations in Parts 43 and 45 of the CFTC’s regulations.
