  • Statement On Request For Comment On Certain Information Providers, SEC Chair Gary Gensler, June 15, 2022

    Date 15/06/2022

    Today, the Commission voted to issue a request for comment to help determine which “information providers,” such as index providers, model portfolio providers, and pricing services, might come under the Commission’s definition of an investment adviser. The role of these information providers in today's markets raises important questions under the securities laws as to if they are providing investment advice rather than merely information. I am pleased to support this request because it will help inform our consideration of when—and under what facts and circumstances—these providers are giving “investment advice.”

  • On The Spot: Remarks At “Regulatory Transparency Project Conference On Regulating The New Crypto Ecosystem: Necessary Regulation Or Crippling Future Innovation?” - SEC Commissioner Hester M. Peirce, June 14, 2022

    Date 15/06/2022

    The topic of today’s event is “regulating the new crypto ecosystem.” It is a hot topic of conversation in Washington, DC. The conversation reminds me of a book for toddlers, Are You My Mother? In that book, a newly hatched bird searches for his mother. He asks a cat, dog, hen, cow, and front-end loader, each of which disappoints the baby bird with the news that it is not the baby bird’s Mom. Rest assured, baby bird and his actual mother are finally reunited. The crypto industry seems to be on a similar journey; only it is not looking for a mother, but is out looking for its regulator. In a bureaucratic twist on the story in the children’s book, in our story, every agency claims to be the regulator. So crypto is looking to Congress to decide who ought to regulate it. A bipartisan bill announced last week attempts to answer that question.[2] Some people in the crypto industry are celebrating the allocation of certain authorities to the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (“CFTC”) instead of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). This view is likely rooted in a disappointment that the SEC has not used more proactively the authorities it already has to sensibly regulate crypto. I understand and share that disappointment, but I am hopeful that we can change course and use our existing and any prospective authorities wisely.

  • Keynote Address Of CFTC Commissioner Christy Goldsmith Romero At The Chicago Bar Association’s Futures & Derivatives Law Seminar, Chicago

    Date 15/06/2022

    Good afternoon.  I want to thank the Chicago Bar Association for the warm welcome of me as a new CFTC Commissioner.  I only wish I could join you in person.  I started my law career in Chicago as a young associate at Jenner & Block with a view of the river from my office.  I instantly fell in love with the city, including Gold Coast hot dogs, summer concerts at Ravinia, and baseball games.  Although I won’t tell you which team because half of you will likely be upset.
