The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) announced Friday that Eileen Rominger, director of the Division of Investment Management, will be retiring in July.
During Rominger’s tenure, the SEC says, the division has been instrumental in implementing the Dodd-Frank Act’s mandates regarding advisors to hedge funds and other private funds.
“Eileen understood the importance of a fair and efficient investment management industry to the well-being of investors everywhere. Her practical insights and steady leadership served investors well,” said SEC Chairwoman Mary Schapiro, in a statement.
Rominger said in the same statement that “It has been a privilege to work with the talented and dedicated staff of the SEC in its mission of protecting investors.”
