Funds could nee U.S.

摘要

If the CFTC places hard position limits on energy futures markets and takes away the hedge exemption from swap dealers who help facilitate investments in long-only commodity indexes, it would not necessarily stop the longrnonly commodity funds from operating, but it could have a large impact on them and they are looking at alternatives just in case.rn"It is serious enough that we have to consider our options," says Michael McGlone, senior director of commodity indexing for Standard & Poor's (S&P). McGlone says that they are working on a broad commodityrnindex made up entirely of non-U.S. commodity futures.
