The SEC has named Shelly Luisi as an associate director in the Division of Corporation Finance with her new role beginning next month, officials say. Luisi succeeds Kyle Moffatt, who recently moved to a senior leadership post within the Division of Corporation Finance’s disclosure review program.
Luisi is already serving as a senior associate chief accountant in the SEC’s Office of the Chief Accountant, where she co-leads the staff responsible for the agency’s accounting communications and accounting standard-setter oversight functions, officials say.
In her new role, Luisi will oversee the work of the Disclosure Standards Office, established in 2013 to conduct research and assess the Division of Corporation Finance program to selectively review public-company filings, officials say. The office also tests the division’s internal controls.
“Her thorough understanding of financial reporting and disclosure issues and deep experience with standard setting and controls will be enormously valuable to our disclosure review program,” says Keith Higgins, director of the Division of Corporation Finance, in a prepared statement.
Luisi began her career at the SEC in 2000 as associate chief accountant and assumed her current position in 2002, officials say. Prior to her career at the SEC, she worked in the private sector for eight years, including as the controller and vice president at a public company and as an assurance manager and auditor at Ernst & Young.
