Mark Adler has been named deputy chief litigation counsel of the SEC's Division of Enforcement, the agency announced on Wednesday.

Adler replaces Peter Bresnan, who was appointed associate director of the Division of Enforcement in April.

"Through his dedication, creativity, judgment, and low-key style, he has earned the respect and confidence of SEC litigators, investigative staff, and senior management," said David Kornblau, the chief litigation counsel of the Division of Enforcement.

Alder was previously an assistant chief litigation counsel with the agency.

Stephen Cutler is the head of the Division of Enforcement.
