WASHINGTON — Effective April 2, the Securities and Exchange Commission said that each of its six district offices nationwide will become a regional office reporting directly to the agency.

The district offices are in Atlanta; Boston; Fort Worth, Texas; Philadelphia; Salt Lake City; and San Francisco. The Commission's existing regional offices are in Chicago, Denver, Los Angeles, Miami and New York.
