Biden Nominates Two Picks for Important Financial Positions

Tuesday, January 19, 2021

President-elect Joe Biden has announced his picks for two important financial regulatory positions. The chairmanship of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) will be filled by Rohit Chopra while Gary Gensler is expected to be named to head the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Both nominations are expected to be controversial among the communities that fall under supervision of the two agencies with Chopra perhaps facing a difficult confirmation process. Chopra helped now-senator Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) design CFPB during the presidency of Barack Obama and served as its assistant director and student loan ombudsperson. He has been a member of the Federal Trade Commission since 2018. Gensler was chair of the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) from 2009 to 2014 and has led Biden's financial industry oversight planning team since the election. Industry observers generally expect the appointments to signal a return to more robust oversight than was the course during the outgoing administration.

"I just wanted to take the time to write and let you know what a miracle worker you are. I never thought in a million years I would get approved to purchase a home but you did it and what a tough job you had. You came through for me and never gave up and I wanted you to know that I am truly grateful. Now I have a place that I can call my own for my daughter and me. Kim, I tell everyone I talk to if they are looking to refinance or purchase a home to call you and you'll get the job done. Thank you so much."
