Quotes

"What we achieve through The Health Lottery, by helping to raise money for hundreds of small community health projects, is very different" she said
Industry association SIFMA was even more vocal: "SIFMA strongly disagrees with CFTC’s final SEF rules, was the headline of its official release on the day.“While SIFMA will review the CFTC’s new SEF and execution rules in detail with our members, upon first read we strongly disagree with the CFTC’s final rules and believe as drafted they will negatively impact investors and hinder the ability of American businesses to manage risk contrary to intent. Restricting an institution’s ability to manage risk will discourage responsible capital management, limit job creation and dampen economic growth" snarled Kenneth Bentsen, Jr., acting president and chief executive officer
