Mayhew named SEC’s ass't chief economist

Stewart Mayhew, assistant chief economist of the Securities and Exchange Commission, has been promoted to deputy chief economist in its Office of Economic Analysis, the agency announced today.

He joined the SEC staff in 2002 as a visiting academic scholar and has been assistant chief economist since 2004, leading a group that does economic analysis and support for the SEC’s Division of Investment Management, Division of Trading and Markets, and Office of Compliance Inspections and Examinations.

“Stewart’s background and skills make him perfectly suited to help ensure that commission’s rulemaking, policymaking, market oversight and enforcement functions fully integrate rigorous economic analysis,” SEC chief economist James Overdahl said in a statement.

Mr. Mayhew served on the faculty of the Terry College of Business at The University of Georgia in Athens and the Krannert School of Management at Purdue University in West Lafayette, Ind.
