 The entire point of this rule is to prevent conflicts of interest. This re-proposed rule grants exceptions to the rule which are unacceptable. There should be NO exceptions granted for ANY reason. If an entity participating in the US stock market cannot do its job without conflicts of interest, then said entity should not be allowed to participate in the US stock markets.

I don't know why I have to comment on this rule when a little bit of common sense would have saved us both some time. To put this plainly: stop making exceptions for the wealthy.
