One Last Note to SEC Staff

All, It has been an honor of a lifetime to serve alongside you at this remarkable agency.

You, the SEC staff, are amongst some of the most professional and productive that I've worked with in my life-whether on Wall Street, in government, or in academia. Though I best not pick a favorite among the many roles in which I've had the privilege to serve, a distinguishing feature of this agency and you the staff is just how clearly you know, understand, and are truly dedicated to the agency's mission.

As I said during my final town hall, I'm so impressed by your dedication to public service, helping build better lives for the communities of today and tomorrow.

I thank you for taking me into your family these last four years and sharing this journey.

Gary
