The Role of the Office of Chief Accountant: A Historical Perspective

I had the good fortune to curate an exhibit for the SEC Historical Society which reviews the history of the SEC’s regulation of financial disclosure by focusing on the important work of the SEC’s Office of Chief Accountant. In a featured program for that exhibit, I moderated a panel of current and former Staffers who worked in the Office of Chief Accountant that included: Paul Munter, SEC Chief Accountant; Joe Ucuzoglu, Chief Executive Officer, Deloitte US and former Senior Advisor to the SEC Chief Accountant; and Paul Beswick, EY Americas IFRS Leader and former SEC Chief Accountant. I encourage you to view that program and check out some of the interesting materials in the exhibit to get an in-depth perspective on the work of the Office of Chief Accountant and its importance in the SEC’s regulation of financial disclosure.
