NEW YORK—On Monday, December 3, the U.S. Department of the Treasury, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, and the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (Joint Member Agencies) will convene the fourth annual conference on the evolution of the U.S. Treasury market structure at the New York Fed.

The keynote addresses and expert panels at this year's conference will cover a range of topics related to the Treasury market. Participants, including academics and representatives from the public and private sectors, will discuss how markets may be affected in the coming years.
Featured speakers at this year's conference will include:
