At the FIA Global Cleared Markets Conference in Boca Raton, Paul Atkins, Chairman of the US Securities and Exchange Commission, spoke to Walt Lukken about his aims to reset the SEC–CFTC relationship through stronger harmonisation and a clear "tone from the top" to end turf wars and support innovation. He also discussed a shift away from enforcement-led policymaking, particularly in crypto, towards clearer rules, and a commitment to working with industry on issues like cross-margining and Treasury clearing to ensure efficient, competitive markets.
