William Butler Comment On Regulatory Notice 22-08

I not regulators should be able to choose the public
investments that are right for you and your family.
Public investments should be available to all of the public,
not just the privileged.

Not only do I have the right to share your views,
but the regulators are required to take your comments into
consideration in deciding whether to move forward.

Thank you for taking action.

I shouldn't have to go through any special process
like passing a test before you can invest in public securities, like leveraged and inverse funds. Explain that you are capable of understanding leveraged and inverse funds
and their risks. Tell regulators you do not
need these measures imposed on you.
Other reasons I think these restrictions on your
right to invest should not be put in place.

Leveraged and inverse funds are important to my
investment strategies.
