The SEC named Dr. Chyhe Kim Becker as Acting Chief Economist

basis.
Dr. Becker first came to the SEC in 2008 as Assistant Chief
Economist. She has led the DERA Office of Litigation Economics
since 2015, and has received awards including the SEC Excellence in
Leadership Award and the Investigative Achievement Award from the
U.S. Attorney's Office for the District of Massachusetts.
Prior to joining the SEC, she was a Principal at Chicago
Partners LLC, and, before that, a Principal with the Economic
Consulting group at Deloitte Financial Advisory Services LLP. In
the private sector, Dr. Becker's work was centered around
securities litigation. She also taught corporation finance at the
University of Chicago Graduate School of Business.
