CFTC Acting Chair Caroline D. Pham reported that the agency freed over $25 billion in capital and collateral through regulatory relief in 2025 and eliminated duplicative, unnecessary, and excessive regulatory requirements.
In a statement before the Financial Stability Oversight Council, Ms. Pham asserted these changes would achieve hundreds of millions of dollars in annual cost savings for market participants. She also claimed the regulatory relief allowed capital to be redeployed toward credit and financing for businesses and households.
