The Securities and Exchange Commission recently announced four new members to fill vacancies on its Investor Advisory Committee — including C. Rodney Comegys, the global head of the Equity Investment Group at Vanguard.

The new members, who will serve four-year terms, join 16 current committee members.

The committee advises the SEC on regulatory priorities and initiatives.

"We are excited that the new members will bring their valued perspectives and experiences to the Investor Advisory Committee. I thank each of them for their willingness to serve," Paul Atkins, the SEC chair, said in a statement. "We look forward to the Committee’s significant contributions to the public dialogue on the important issues facing investors."

Other new members are:

  • James R. Copland, senior fellow and director, legal policy at Manhattan Institute
  • John A. Gulliver, executive director, Committee on Capital Markets Regulations and Program on International Financial Systems
  • Sergio G. Rodriguera Jr., co-founder, Straylight Systems Inc.

At the committee's last meeting, on Sept. 18, the panel discussed retail investor access to private market assets.

The SEC said it expects that an announcement seeking a slate of candidates to serve as members will be issued in 2026.
