SEC Requests Further Comment on Proposed "Lending and Borrowing" Rule

The SEC requested further comment on proposed amendments to FINRA Rule 3240 ("Borrowing From or Lending to Customers").

The proposed amendments would "strengthen the general prohibition against borrowing and lending arrangements with customers, narrow some of the existing exceptions to [those] prohibition[s] ...and enhance the [notification] requirements for ...approval of such arrangements." (See previous coverage.)

The original comment period closed on February 12, 2024. The new deadline is May 15, 2024.
