The Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) will soon be down to three active commissioners, as Brian Quintenz announced Thursday he will depart the regulator at the end of the month.

Quintenz, who has served as a Republican commissioner since being appointed by President Donald Trump in 2017, had his term initially expire in April 2020. He said then he would not seek another five-year term but would continue to serve until a replacement commissioner was named.
