New Eu Regulation of derivatives/FX

[MarkedFeed]

What I am concerned about is this new regulation that is supposedly being pushed through and was agreed this week. It basically forces derivatives to be cleared through central clearing houses which will enforce higher margins and capital rules.

Will this affect all Fx transactions - in the US I don't think the Dodd frank rules will apply to FX but the EU are talking about all derivatives with limited exceptions.

Can anyone shed any light on this?
Will this affect all FX brokers?
