Scott Mootz Comment On Regulatory Notice 22-08

N/A

I should be able to choose the public investments that are right for my individual and family savings. I am capable of understanding leverage and inverse funds and their risks. I do not need these measures imposed on me.

Leveraged and inverse funds are important investment strategies. I use them to help hedge, seek enhanced returns, and for overall portfolio construction purposes. These are much more than simple one off trading vehicles and curtailment of access greatly impedes retail access to these useful tools.

Recent advancements in retail offerings have brought access to tools previously only reserved for the wealthiest investors and institutions. Please do not limit access for me and millions of others like me.
