The Senate on Tuesday confirmed Jay Clayton, the Wall Street attorney chosen by President Donald Trump, to lead the Securities and Exchange Commission.
The vote was 61-37 to give Clayton the job of running the independent agency that oversees Wall Street and the financial markets. Nine Democrats and one independent, Maine's Angus King, joined 51 Republicans in backing the nominee.
Clayton, a partner in the prominent law firm Sullivan & Cromwell, has done significant legal work for Wall Street powerhouse Goldman Sachs and an array of other financial giants and corporations.
In line with Trump's pledge to ease many rules that flowed from the 2010 Dodd-Frank financial regulatory law, a Clayton-led SEC would be expected to take a comparatively loose approach to regulation. At his confirmation hearing in March, Clayton sought to reassure senators that he would act only in the public interest.
美国参议院星期二批准由川普总统挑选的华尔街律师杰伊·克莱顿出任美国证券交易委员会主席。
证券交易委员会负责监督华尔街和金融市场,九位民主党人,一位独立党派参议员与共和党议员一道,以61比37票的表决通过了克莱顿的任命。
克莱顿是著名律师事务所“苏利文-克伦威尔”的合伙人之一,曾经为包括高盛公司在内的众多华尔街金融巨头和大公司提供过出色的法律服务。
川普总统再三呼吁要取消2010年《多德-弗兰克》金融改革法案中部分内容。克莱顿领导下的证交会预计在法规方面会采取相对放松的态度。克莱顿在三月份批准任命的听证会曾向参议员保证,他会把公众利益作为行动的唯一准则。
