A few days ago, the SEC issued this press release with a list of the current senior staffers in Corp Fin. Director Jim Moloney started his job a few months ago – and now he has three Deputy Directors!
Cicely LaMothe recently retired and Duc Dang was promoted to serve as Deputy Director for disclosure operations in her stead. Christina Thomas was just rehired by Corp Fin to serve as Deputy Director for policy and rulemaking. And Sebastian Gomez Abero is Deputy Director for legal and regulatory policy after having served as Acting Deputy Director in that role for the past year.
This is the second time there has been three Deputy Directors in Corp Fin. In 2013, there was a brief period with three Deputies when Paula Dubberly was promoted just before Brian Breheny left the SEC. And there was a period when there were two Deputies in the 2000s – and then again recently until we got to three this week. Otherwise, Corp Fin has only had a single Deputy Director.
There are five Associate Directors, a Chief Counsel and Chief Accountant and a Managing Executive. Here is the full list:
- Luna Bloom, Associate Director, Legal and Regulatory Policy
- Duc Dang, Deputy Director, Disclosure Operations
- Gabriel Eckstein, Associate Director, Disclosure Review Program
- Tomeka Gilbert, Managing Executive
- Sebastian Gomez Abero, Deputy Director, Legal and Regulatory Policy
- Jessica Kane, Associate Director, Disclosure Review Program
- Heather Rosenberger, Chief Accountant
- Michael Seaman, Chief Counsel
- Brad Skinner, Associate Director, Disclosure Review Program
- Christina Thomas, Deputy Director, Chief Advisor on Disclosure, Policy and Rulemaking
- Ted Yu, Associate Director, Specialized Policy and Disclosure
