Good afternoon. 
After reading and discussing about the proposed rule, I found the way that was writen very concerning . 
 
In this proposed rule have some examples of potential loopholes:
 
 
This proposal would allow securitizers to engage in hedging activities to reduce their risk exposure related to the securitization, but it could be exploited to engage in conflicted practices.
 
For example, a securitizer could engage in hedging activities that benefit their own interests  at the expense of investors in the securitization.
 
And another one loophole :
 
Bona fide market making: This exception would allow securitizers to make a market in the securities being securitized, which could be used to ensure liquidity and pricing stability in the market. However, it could also be used as a loophole to engage in conflicted practices. For example, a securitizer could artificially manipulate the market to benefit their own interests.
 
And another one: 
 
Certain liquidity commitments: This exception would allow securitizers to make certain commitments to provide liquidity in the event of market disruptions or other contingencies. While this is intended to ensure the stability of the securitization market, it could also be used as a loophole to engage in conflicted practices. For example, a securitizer could use this exception to avoid losses at the expense of investors in the securitization.
 
I hope that these concerns will be properly examined.
 
Sincerely,
Anon
