The Market Risk Advisory Committee advises the Commission on matters relating to evolving market structures and movement of risk across clearinghouses, exchanges, intermediaries, market makers and end-users. It examines systemic issues that threaten the stability of the derivatives markets and other financial markets, and makes recommendations on how to improve market structure and mitigate risk.
Acting Chairman Rostin Behnam sponsors the Market Risk Advisory Committee. Members include representatives of clearinghouses, exchanges, intermediaries, market makers, end-users, academia and regulators. Alicia Lewis serves as the Designated Federal Officer for the committee.
