The U.S. CFTC cancels headquarters relocation plans and intends to add 100 staff members to handle prediction markets and crypto regulation
Meanwhile, the CFTC recently offered about 50 employees a deferred resignation plan and has provided buyouts to some long-term staff. Federal Personnel Management data shows that the agency's staff has decreased by nearly 25% since 2024, with only 553 remaining as of April. The CFTC is seeking to increase its total staff to 650 in its FY2027 budget request.
Additionally, under a White House executive order, 25 positions (including policy advisors and senior legal counsel) have been reclassified, removing civil service protections, allowing these employees to be dismissed at any time. (Source: PANews)
