In this episode, Brian Young shares some observations of what it was like to be the CFTC’s most recent Director of Enforcement, his time leading the CFTC’s Whistleblower’s program, early entry into the derivatives space from his time at the DOJ, and more!
Brian’s tenure as Director of Enforcement overlapped with the CFTC’s recent enforcement sprint, and Brian shares some observations about how the DOE actioned on the CFTC priorities to make that sprint successful and industry’s response.
Tune in to hear how the ‘crucible of trial,’ early mentors, and experiences as an Acting Director at the Department of Justice helped solidify Brian’s view that a successful enforcement action was one that led to just results, with no winners or losers.
Along the way, Brian discusses the importance of appreciating where you are in the moment, the importance of the Whistleblower program, and some tips of how to conquer the learning curve into this space.
