Heath Tarbert, former chairman of the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), has been named chief legal officer at Citadel Securities.
Tarbert stepped down as chair of the CFTC in January, a position he held since 2019, but had remained on as a commissioner until recently. His term on the CFTC ran through April 2024. Commissioner Rostin Behnam has served as acting chair of the agency since Tarbert vacated the post.
