Customer Margin Rules Relating to Security Futures

The Commodity Futures Trading Commission and the Securities and Exchange Commission propose amendments to lower the minimum customer margin requirement for unhedged security futures positions from 20% to 15%. The agencies also intend to revise the margin offset table to remain consistent with this proposed reduction in margin levels. These joint proposed rules aim to harmonize margin requirements with comparable exchange-traded options while preserving market integrity and preventing systemic risk.
