Acting Chairman Pham

This year, we also refocused on our mandate to promote responsible innovation and fair competition as the CFTC prepares to take on expanded oversight of new markets and new products like digital assets, crypto, and prediction markets. I am deeply grateful for the CFTC’s expertise, experience, and care in safeguarding the public’s trust while championing progress, growth, and access to markets.

As I said at the beginning of the year, as the CFTC celebrates our 50th anniversary, we have always served our mission to promote market integrity and liquidity in the commodity derivatives markets that are critical to the real economy and global trade — ensuring American growers, producers, merchants, and other commercial end-users can mitigate risks to their business and support strong U.S. economic growth.

I am thrilled to welcome @MichaelSelig as the 16th Chairman of the @CFTC. His pragmatic, common sense approach will ensure the CFTC strikes the right balance of innovation and market integrity. It has been the honor of a lifetime to lead the CFTC during such a historic moment for market structure and innovation. I am incredibly proud of the CFTC and all its dedicated staff for their hard work and commitment this year to deliver on our pledge to get back to basics and regular order.

Thank you @POTUS @realDonaldTrump for your leadership and support! It’s been an honor to serve in your Administration and usher in the Golden Age of America! 🇺🇸🫡

“The Department of @Energy supports initiatives that reduce energy prices for Americans, cut unnecessary red tape, and drive forward the energy needed to achieve America’s global AI dominance. DOE commends the CFTC’s efforts to reduce regulatory barriers and costs and increase reliability of American energy." —Deputy Secretary of Energy Danly

The @CFTC’s new pilot program will expand access to energy markets, increase the ability to hedge risks and lower costs, which can unlock potentially billions of dollars of energy savings for U.S. consumers. This is a win for all Americans by unleashing U.S. energy production through less red tape and cutting costs for the entire value chain. cftc.gov/PressRoom/Pres…

Unleashing American energy dominance and lowering costs for all Americans 🇺🇸

Americans deserve safe U.S. markets. Today, we’re requesting public input on retail protections in @CFTC markets. Innovation thrives when there are clear rules and safeguards for all traders—big or small.

We’re eliminating duplicative, unnecessary @CFTC requirements and excessive costs that have negatively impacted American competitiveness for over 10 years with no measurable benefit. I’m pleased to clean up the lack of regulatory clarity and create clear, simple rules that will promote more efficient and well-functioning markets.

We did 154 things so far this year: ✅ 37 enforcement actions ✅ 49 other Commission actions (rules, registration orders etc.) ✅ 68 staff actions (advisories, letters, withdrawals, requests for comment, FAQ, exam reports etc.) MAKE @CFTC GREAT AGAIN

Wonderful to celebrate at our @CFTC holiday party. Here’s to the best festive outfits. Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!

@CFTC has also eliminated duplicative, unnecessary, and excessive regulatory requirements that will achieve an estimate of hundreds of millions of dollars in annual cost savings for our market participants.

Economic growth is critical for financial stability. @CFTC has unlocked at least $25 billion of capital and collateral regulatory relief that can now be used for credit and financing for businesses and households to drive U.S. economic growth.

.@CFTC is committed to working with @SECGov to implement Treasury market reforms. Expanding cross-margining to customers will provide capital efficiencies that can increase liquidity and resiliency in U.S. Treasuries, the most important market in the world 🇺🇸 cftc.gov/PressRoom/Pres…

Great to talk about @CFTC regulatory clarity with @RepBryanSteil! Thank you for your leadership on crypto, digital assets and the future of finance 🇺🇸
