Stop Tax Haven Abuse Act
According to senator Levin "tax havens sell secrecy to attract
clients to their shores. They peddle secrecy the way other
countries advertise high quality products or services. And though
they go to great lengths to justify and defend their practices,
that secrecy is utilized by thousands of people to cloak tax
evasion and other misconduct"
What all these mean to risk and compliance
professionals

Prevent Excessive Speculation Act
This particular legislation makes four sets of changes.
1. Require the
Commodity Futures Trading Commission
(CFTC)
to set limits on the holdings of traders in all of the energy
futures contracts traded on regulated exchanges to prevent
traders from engaging in excessive speculation
or price manipulation.
2. Closes the “London loophole” by giving the CFTC the same
authority to police traders in the United States who trade U.S.
futures contracts on a foreign exchange
3. Closes the “swaps loophole” by requiring traders in the
over-the-counter energy markets to report large trades to the CFTC
4.
Requires the CFTC to revise the standards that allow traders who
use futures markets to hedge their holdings to exceed the
speculation limits that apply to everyone else
