By Silla Brush, Bloomberg | Updated on May 30, 2012

CLS Bank International, which settles about $4.5 trillion in foreign-exchange transactions daily, received a letter from U.S. regulators including it among entities proposed for designation as systemically important, according to a person familiar with the matter.

The London-based bank, which settles transactions in 17 currencies, joins clearinghouses owned by CME Group Inc.; Intercontinental Exchange Inc.; OCC, formerly the Options Clearing Corp.; and the Depository Trust and Clearing Corp. in receiving the designation from the Financial Stability Oversight Council.
