Federal Register: CFTC Renews Technology Advisory Committee

The CFTC extended the term of the Technology Advisory Committee ("TAC"). The notice was published in the Federal Register.

The TAC advises the CFTC on: (i) the application and utilization of new technologies in financial services and commodity markets, as well as by market professionals and market users; (ii) the appropriate level of investment in technology at the CFTC to meet its surveillance and enforcement responsibilities; and (iii) the need for strategies to implement rules and regulations to support the CFTC's mission of ensuring the integrity of the markets.

The TAC will operate for two years from the date of renewal unless the CFTC directs otherwise.
