HomeMary Jo White: Next SEC Chief’s ‘Skeleton in Closet’
Posted by Larry Doyle on January 24th, 2013 11:09 AM |
News breaks this morning that President Obama will nominate Mary Jo White to be the next head of the SEC.
Who is Ms. White? A highly decorated attorney at the prestigious law firm of Debevoise & Plimpton. I would expect she might win a very easy approval to be our nation’s next top financial cop. Why so?
The spin on the nomination is that she is a former prosecutor and US Attorney for the Southern District of New York and will hold Wall Street accountable. Is that right?
Before we coronate her, I think we may want her to address what I would deem to be a ‘skeleton in her closet.’ Really? Oh yeah!
