Editor’s Note: The following post comes to us from Margaret E. Tahyar and Gabriel D. Rosenberg of the Financial Institutions Group at Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP. This post discusses a Davis Polk report which is available here. A post about the previous progress report is available here. Other posts about the Dodd-Frank Act are available here.

This posting, the February 2012 Davis Polk Dodd-Frank Progress Report, is the eleventh in a series of Davis Polk presentations that illustrate graphically the progress of the rulemaking work that has been done and is yet to occur under the Dodd-Frank Act. The Progress Report has been prepared using data from the Davis Polk Regulatory Tracker™, an online subscription service offered by Davis Polk to help market participants understand the Dodd-Frank Act and follow regulatory developments on a real-time basis.

In this report:

  • As of February 1, 2012, a total of 225 Dodd-Frank rulemaking requirement deadlines have passed. Of these 225 passed deadlines, 164 (72.9%) have been missed and 61 (27.1%) have been met with finalized rules.
  • Major rulemaking activity this month included CFTC final rules on business conduct standards and registration of swap dealers and major swap participants.
  • The GAO published seven studies in January 2012.

  1. I am in support of dodd frank and would like to see regulations all speculation that has to with oil, metals,and food prices. Has funding been approved yet for this all important bill?
