Correction to CFTC's Enhancing Customer Protection Rule (Fed. Reg.)

The CFTC made corrections to its final rules on enhancing protections afforded customers and customer funds held by futures commission merchants and derivatives clearing organizations by removing a phrase from Appendix B to CFTC Rule 1.20 ("Futures Customer Funds to Be Segregated and Separately Accounted for") and Appendix B to Rule 1.26 ("Deposit of Instruments Purchased with Futures Customer Funds").

The corrections are effective as of May 12, 2014.
