Institute of International Bankers

The IIB’s mission is to help resolve the many special legislative, regulatory and tax issues confronting internationally headquartered financial institutions that engage in banking, securities and/or insurance activities in the United States. The IIB testified in support of several swap bills at a March 28th hearing of a House Agriculture subcommittee, including H.R. 3283, the Swap Jurisdiction Certainty Act, which makes certain that internationally headquartered banks’ non-U.S. swap and security-based swap transactions will not be subject to U.S. regulatory requirements, and H.R. 1838, which favorably addresses the swap “push out” provision (Section 716) of DFA by resolving the disparate treatment of uninsured U.S. branches/agencies of foreign banks vis-à-vis U.S. insured depository institutions. Testifying on behalf of the IIB was Keith Bailey, Managing Director in the Fixed Income, Currencies and Commodities Division of Barclays. http://www.iib.org/
