Remarks At FINRA Enforcement Conference, SEC Commissioner Daniel M. Gallagher, Alexandria, VA, Nov. 7, 2013

When I showed up, I found a room with a stage, a podium, a microphone, and a couple of hundred Market Reg personnel expecting a formal speech. So when I was told that there would be about 240 of you here today, I thought I should go ahead and prepare myself for a cast of thousands…. This is something of a letdown.
