The US Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) has named Joseph Cisewski and Scott Reinhart co-chiefs of staff and co-chief operating officers.
"I am very pleased that these talented public servants will help manage the commission during this critical transition period for the derivatives markets," said acting chairman Mark Wetjen.
He added that Cisewski and Reinhart had been instrumental in the 60 final rules, orders, and interpretations issued by the commission over the past two years, and that those efforts have been instrumental in bringing transparency to the swaps marketplace and in enhancing the soundness of the derivatives market structure.
In his role, Cisewski primarily will oversee activities in the CFTC's office of the general counsel, office of the chief economist, and divisions of swap dealer, intermediary oversight, and clearing and risk.
Reinhart primarily will oversee the activities of the CFTC's office of international affairs, including the agency's coordination with foreign regulators, and divisions of market oversight and enforcement.
