SEC Chief Accountant Donald T. Nicolaisen To Leave
After meeting Nicolaisen at several SEC meetings, I can honestly say that his departure will be a big loss to the SEC. He was a great contributor to new directions at the SEC and had an open mind about problems. He worked hard to resolve issues where he could.
Good Luck Don, you will be missed.
