In the latest development, after Gary Gensler, the US SEC Commissioner Jaime Lizárraga is leaving on January 17, which could give Republicans a head start in redirecting the regulator’s policies. Lizárraga conveyed that he was leaving because his wife has been suffering from a serious illness. Notably, Lizárraga’s departure leaves the Securities and Exchange Commission with just one Democratic Commissioner, Caroline Crenshaw. The two remaining Republican members are Hester Peirce and Mark Uyeda.
