The Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) will feature its “most diverse set of commissioners in the agency’s history” after the confirmation of four nominees to vacant board seats Monday.
The Senate unanimously approved the appointments of Christy Goldsmith Romero, Kristin Johnson, Summer Mersinger, and Caroline Pham to serve as commissioners at the derivatives market regulator. Romero and Johnson fill Democratic openings, while Mersinger and Pham are Republicans.
