WASHINGTON, D.C. — Commodity Futures Trading Commission Acting Chairman Caroline D. Pham today made the following statement:
“The 2025 Unified Agenda implements the President’s executive orders and demonstrates that the CFTC is getting back to basics,” Pham said. “The CFTC must be laser-focused on our mission to promote market integrity and liquidity in the commodity derivatives markets that are critical to the real economy and global trade. American growers, producers, merchants and other commercial end-users depend on our markets to mitigate risks to their business and support strong U.S. economic growth. Importantly, regulations proposed over the last several years that do not serve our mission and instead pile on excessive and unnecessary costs are being withdrawn. And, 15 years later, the CFTC still has cleanup work to do in order to address unworkable Dodd-Frank rules and broad overreach. We are finally right-sizing and fixing those rules now.”
