The Technology Advisory Committee (TAC) was created in 1999 to advise the Commission on complex issues at the intersection of technology, law, policy, and finance. The TAC may, from time to time, provide recommendations relating to the impact and implications of technological change on financial markets and the U.S. economy.
Commissioner Christy Goldsmith Romero sponsors the Technology Advisory Committee. Tony Biagioli serves as the Designated Federal Officer for the committee.
