We have a variety of regulations that set forth different standards of eligibility for different types of instruments.  These can be found under both the U.S. securities laws and the commodities laws.  It's not always easy to remember who is who.  To help keep things straight, we have prepared a summary table, which you can access here.

Because of the generality of this update, the information provided herein may not be applicable in all situations and should not be acted upon without specific legal advice based on particular situations.
