I'm trying to understand the corporate hierarchy, specifically, I want to know if the Chief Compliance Officer (CCO) holds a higher position than the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) within a company.

    The CEO's role is unique as they only report to the board.

    No other individuals or departments have oversight over the CEO.

    The COO, or Chief Operating Officer, serves as the second in command to the CEO.
