Thank you for providing us the ability to comment on something you should have access to 10 years ago.
With the advent of existing knowledge of illegal practices by the financial institutions, I do not believe loaned shares is enough of a step - despite it being a great one.
I humbly request you to expand the scope of this rule and provide retail full visibility on raw CNS data. Retail currently only gets net of CNS and only for FTDs.
According to your own reporting, only 0.12% of all FTDs are ever settled. A result of this visibility will truly provide retail with the necessary visibility to protect themselves against criminal actions.
Thank you, 
Scott
