SEC, CFTC Discuss Moving Into Same Building Complex

Wall Street’s two top regulators are discussing plans to move into the same building complex in Washington just steps from the US Capitol, according to people familiar with the matter.

The Securities and Exchange Commission and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission — which oversee different markets — wouldn’t be merged under the plan, said the people, who asked not to be identified discussing confidential efforts. The discussions involve moving the CFTC into the same complex where the SEC is currently located near Union Station.
