The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission has opened a call for candidates to serve on its Investor Advisory Committee, with appointments sought for open at-large membership positions and for the statutory seat representing the interests of senior citizens. Established under Section 39 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the committee advises the SEC on the Commission’s regulatory priorities, the regulation of securities products, trading strategies and fee structures, the effectiveness of disclosure, and initiatives to protect investor interests and support investor confidence and market integrity. Interested applicants must submit a letter of interest indicating which role they seek by Feb. 23, 2026, and applicants who previously applied in 2025 may request reconsideration by the same deadline if their prior information remains accurate.
