SEC Enforcement in Financial Reporting and Disclosure: 2020 Mid-Year Update
We are pleased to present our annual mid-year update on financial reporting and issuer disclosure enforcement activity for 2020. This White Paper focuses on the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission's ("SEC") enforcement activity for the first half of 2020 but also discusses other recent developments, including relevant Supreme Court cases and SEC rulemaking activity. Overall, even in an unusual year marked by the COVID-19 pandemic, the SEC continues to prioritize protection of "retail investors."
