The Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and Commodity Futures Trading Commission (“CFTC”) will hold a joint public event on Thursday, January 29, 2026 (rescheduled from Tuesday, January 27), at the CFTC Headquarters in Washington, D.C., to discuss harmonization of the regulatory approach taken by the agencies and U.S. leadership in the crypto era. The event is open to the public and will be webcast live on the SEC’s website. The program is expected to include remarks from both Chair Atkins and Selig and a moderated fireside chat.
This joint session is framed as part of broader efforts to align oversight of crypto markets and foster innovation “on American soil,” and may offer signals on areas of SEC-CFTC coordination relevant to trading venues, custody, and intermediaries.
The event will be streamed live on the SEC’s website. See the full agenda for additional information.
