SEC Chairman Paul S. Atkins announced the opening of the nomination process for all five PCAOB seats, with terms expiring annually from 2026 to 2030. Mandated by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, the PCAOB supervises audits of public companies, brokers, and dealers. Nominees must be reputable individuals with strong investor advocacy, financial disclosure knowledge, and a clear understanding of accounting oversight responsibilities. Chairperson eligibility is extended to both CPAs and non-CPAs, though practicing CPAs must have been inactive for at least five years to qualify. Citing concerns over recent PCAOB budget increases, Atkins emphasized fiscal discipline and effective use of public resources, hinting that compensation scrutiny would accompany budget review. Interested individuals must submit a cover letter and résumé to the SEC by Aug. 25, 2025, for consideration.
