Breaking News: New Acting Chairs Appointed at Both the SEC and CFTC
In a recent development, both the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) have announced new acting chairs. The SEC has appointed Mark Uyeda as its new acting chair, replacing Gary Gensler who resigned from his position.
Uyeda, a Republican commissioner, was previously considered a strong contender for the role due to his criticism of the agency’s approach to regulating the cryptocurrency sector under Gensler’s leadership. He had expressed concerns over the “over-regulation” of digital assets and had even referred to it as a “catastrophe” in an interview.
As SEC acting chair, Uyeda is expected to bring about changes in the commission’s regulatory policies, particularly with regards to cryptocurrency. He has previously hinted at potentially easing regulations on the sector and increasing clarity on the use of digital assets.
On the other hand, Caroline Pham has been appointed as the new acting chair of the CFTC. Pham was a vocal supporter of establishing clear regulations for the cryptocurrency market and had advocated for creating “sandbox” environments for startups to experiment with innovative financial products.
The news comes at a time when the Republican-controlled House is considering proposals to freeze or drop lawsuits related to cryptocurrencies, which has sparked concerns among investors and industry experts. Pham’s appointment could potentially impact these efforts, as she has been open about her support for regulatory clarity in the sector.
It remains unclear who will take on the permanent chair positions at both agencies, but both Uyeda and Pham are strong contenders given their past statements and actions.
