Masamichi Kono is to be the new chairman of The International Organization of Íø±¬³Ô¹Ï Commissions (IOSCO) board.
Kono indicated he would step down from the position in March 2013, with Greg Medcraft, chairman of the Australian Íø±¬³Ô¹Ï & Investment Commission (ASIC), taking over until he too steps down at the IOSCO Annual Conference in September 2014 in Rio de Janeiro.
The board also appointed two vice chairs: Vedat Akgiray, chairman of the capital markets board of Turkey, and Ethiopis Tafara, the director of the Office of International Affairs at the US SEC.
As part of a streamlining of IOSCO’s organizational structure, the new board was established through a three-way merger of IOSCO’s technical committee, the executive committee and the emerging markets committee advisory board.
