​ Last week, the SEC proposed amendments on broker-​dealer responsibility rules which included several impacting money funds. Rule 15c3-​3 would allow unaffiliated, large government money funds to be used for customer reserve deposit requirements, a change pushed by Federated Investors and Treasury Strategies, and a proposed change to Rule 15c3-​1 would reduce the net capital required "​haircut" for money funds from 2% to 1%. Changes in the treatment of free credit balances and sweep account options are also in store, and additional securities lending and repo oversight is proposed.
