I believe that in order to maintain stability to the market this proposed change is necessary. If Wall Street wishes to engage in risky behaviours in their endeavours to make money, they had best be able to pay for it if they miscalculated the risks. For too long the tax payers have saddled the cost of these gambles as the US government proffers bailouts. It is absolutely in the best interest of retail investors and indeed market participants in large to approve SLD requirements.
