The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission has named co-directors of its Division of Enforcement. The SEC said on June 8 that acting director Stephanie Avakian and former federal prosecutor Steven Peikin will jointly lead the agency’s largest unit with more than 1,200 investigators, accountants, trial attorneys and other professionals. Avakian was named acting director in December 2016 after serving as deputy director of the division since mid-2014. Before being named deputy director, Avakian was a partner at Wilmer Cutler Pickering Hale and Dorr. Peikin served as an assistant U.S. attorney in Manhattan and most recently was managing partner of Sullivan & Cromwell’s criminal defense and investigations group.
