One of the best ways we can protect investors and facilitate capital formation is by empowering Americans to invest wisely—especially the service members who defend our Republic.

It was an honor to spend time with some of these brave men and women last week.

The SEC's Director of the Division of Trading and Markets, Jamie Selway, delivered remarks at the @Piper_Sandler Global Exchange and Fintech Conference, highlighting Division priorities under Chairman @SECPaulSAtkins regarding SEC-@CFTC harmonization.

Key excerpts below. ⬇️🧵

[U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission @SECGov]

"As we consider . . . harmonization, let us be mindful of our shared responsibilities to the investing public.

First, despite blurred technological lines and temptations outside U.S. jurisdiction, we must distinguish investing from gambling.

Second, we must avoid the age-old, well-worn path to financial services perdition—extending unhealthy levels of leverage to the unsophisticated and unsuspecting.

By delivering true innovations, and avoiding these twin pitfalls, organizations can deliver value to clients, investors, world-leading industries, and our great Nation."

President Reagan once said, “The nine most terrifying words in the English language are: I'm from the Government, and I'm here to help.”

Over my 3 tours at the SEC, I have discovered six equally terrifying words: “We should create another disclosure requirement."

.@SECGov HQ is steps away from Columbus Circle. The fountain's restoration is awe-inspiring, especially considering nearly 20 years of neglect and vandalism.

Grateful for @POTUS' leadership and efforts by @SecretaryBurgum and @Interior to restore this historic landmark just in time for our Republic's 250th anniversary.

Today, we proposed the rescission of the prior administration's ill-advised climate rule.

The @SECGov exists to serve all investors, not to advance an agenda of the politicized few who have axes to grind or business models to aggrandize.

[U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission @SECGov]

"This proposal represents a step towards refocusing our efforts on what matters most to investors: financial materiality."

"Unless Congress explicitly has directed otherwise, we do not have the authority to craft boundless disclosure rules to respond to stakeholder demands, investors’ idiosyncratic interests, or our own curiosity."

SEC disclosure obligations should comply with the Commission’s statutory authority, be guided by materiality, avoid the practical effect of dictating corporate behavior, and be imposed only when the expected benefits justify the likely costs and burdens.
