The Senate Banking Committee is “tentatively” looking at the week of March 11 for a confirmation hearing with Mary Jo White (left), President Barack Obama’s choice as the next head of the Securities and Exchange Commission, a Senate aide told AdvisorOne Monday night.
Once the Senate Banking Committee has its hearing, the full Senate can confirm her the very next day, or a day later, so White could replace current SEC Chairwoman Elisse Walter by mid-March.
