Bankruptcy Laws?

May 05, 2007 by Melanie N | Posted in Other - Business & Finance

Just wondering if anyone knows the new bankruptcy laws? Does it depend on the state or is it the same nation wide? I live in New Mexico

There are variations from state to state but the core of the legislation is the same for all states.

Swaps Industry Debates Bankruptcy Code Fix to Protect Customers

22.05.12

Derivatives industry executives and a U.S. regulator differed over whether to change the bankruptcy code to protect customers from sharing in losses from a brokerage failure.

CME Group Inc. (CME) has backed a plan to allow pension funds and other big asset managers to deal directly with a clearinghouse rather than with a bank brokerage to avoid customers being caught in bankruptcy proceedings that can result in clients losing money, said Tim Doar, a managing director at the world’s biggest futures exchange. A simpler solution to this problem would be to change the U.S. bankruptcy laws, said Dan Maguire, head of U.S. operations for LCH.Clearnet Ltd’s Swap Clear service.
