FHFA plans to issue a proposed rule regarding credit-risk retention and the SEC is working toward a proposal to encourage issuance of publicly registered MBS and ABS.

SFA and other trade groups are seeking major changes to the re-proposed bank capital requirements. MBA raised concerns that non-agency MBS would receive more favorable capital treatment than GSE MBS.

Trade groups expressed concern that proposed changes to Rule 15c2-11 of the Securities Exchange Act could accidentally ensnare ABS.
