<h1>New Guidelines for CRAs: Manage Conflicts of Interest, Secure Approval for Trades, Disclose Holdings by October 1, 2013.</h1> The circular outlines guidelines for managing conflicts of interest in investment and trading by Credit Rating Agencies (CRAs), Access Persons, and other employees. It mandates CRAs to establish systems and policies to prevent misuse of sensitive information. Access Persons must seek prior approval for transactions involving securities rated by the CRA, with approvals valid for seven days. New employees must disclose securities holdings within seven days of joining, and all employees must report transactions and holdings periodically. Employees involved in rating cannot own issuer securities. CRAs must implement these guidelines by October 1, 2013, and disclose their policies publicly.
