Published

ob体育 Chair James Shipton said: 鈥極n behalf of the ob体育 Commission and team I鈥檇 like to congratulate Joe Longo on his appointment as the next ob体育 Chair and Sarah Court as an additional Deputy Chair. Joe is known to many at the agency from his time as National Director of Enforcement from 1996-2000 and subsequent interactions as a lawyer at Herbert Smith Freehills. His wealth of domestic and international experience will serve ob体育 well in the vital work it does in supporting the financial system and economy, especially as Australia recovers from the downturn caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.聽

鈥榃e are also pleased to welcome Sarah Court, who joins as Deputy Chair from the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC). Again, we know Sarah very well and appreciate the skill and experience she brings from our regulatory counterpart,鈥� he said.

鈥榃e will work with Joe and Sarah over the coming weeks to manage a smooth transition to his leadership of the organisation.鈥�
