  • Remarks To The American Bar Association's Business Law Section Fall Meeting, Andrew Ceresney, Director, SEC Division Of Enforcement, Washington D.C., Nov. 21, 2014

    Date 21/11/2014

    Before I begin, let me give the requisite reminder that the views I express today are my own and do not necessarily represent the views of the Commission or its staff.

    I am pleased to be here this morning to talk about the latest developments in the SEC’s Enforcement Division. The SEC recently completed its fiscal year, which was my first full fiscal year as Enforcement Director and Chair White’s first as Chair. As a result, I wanted to spend a little time today highlighting some of our successes over the past year, look briefly at what to expect in the coming year, and then talk about some areas that have been the focus of much discussion in recent months — administrative proceedings, admissions, and our increased use of big data.
