【Insider: Trump's SEC Chair Nominee Paul Atkins Reluctant to Accept Position】Golden Finance reports that insiders reveal Trump’s SEC chair nominee Paul Atkins is unwilling to accept the position. People familiar with Atkins' thoughts say the position holds little appeal for him due to the extensive work required to 'turn around this bloated agency'. He believes the mismanagement of the agency is due to the outgoing SEC Chairman Gary Gensler. Atkins is the founder and CEO of Patomak Global Partners, a global consulting firm focused on strategy, risk management, and regulatory compliance. Patomak serves cryptocurrency companies, but they are just a small part of its diversified business, which also includes traditional financial clients, public companies, industry associations, law firms, banks, and insurance companies. Insiders say Paul Atkins is unwilling to leave his company, and taking the SEC chair position would require him to resign from business interests; he would only consider doing so if the company could operate normally without him.
