SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title: Gross Collection of ExchangeSet Margins for Omnibus Accounts OMB Control No. 30380026. This is a request for extension of a currently approved information collection.
Abstract: Commission Regulation 1.58
requires futures commission merchants to collect exchange-set margin for omnibus accounts on a gross, rather than a net, basis. The regulation provides that the carrying FCM need not collect margin for positions traded by a person through an omnibus account in excess of the amount that would be required if the same person, instead of trading through an omnibus account, maintained its own account with the carrying FCM. To prevent abuse of this exception to the regulation, a carrying FCM must maintain a written representation from the originating FCM
or foreign broker that the particular positions held in the omnibus account are part of a hedge or spread transaction.
