The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on Wednesday announced Mark Uyeda will serve a second term as commissioner.
Uyeda is one of two Republicans comprising the five-member SEC. An employee of the agency since 2006, he was confirmed as a commissioner in June 2022 to finish out the last year of the term Elad Roisman vacated when he resigned.
In June 2023, President Joe Biden nominated Uyeda for a second term expiring in 2028. The Senate confirmed Uyeda on Dec. 20, and he was sworn in Dec. 28.
