    [Questions & Answers]

    Q.

    This week, regarding the Securities and Exchange Surveillance Commission's (SESC's) recommendation related to a suspected case of insider trading of shares at system developer SJI, the Financial Services Agency refrained from taking administrative actions on the grounds that it has not recognized any violation of laws or regulations.

    Could you explain this unusual decision and do you think that the SESC has conducted an adequate investigation?

    A.

    On October 23, the FSA announced that it has not recognized any violation of the Financial Instruments and Exchange Act.

    As this is matter concerning a specific company, I would like to refrain from commenting on the details. I understand that the SESC appropriately exercises its investigative authority in accordance with laws and regulations in order to secure public interest, including the fairness of financial instruments transactions and protection of investors. In any case, I hope that the SESC will strive to ensure more appropriate enforcement.
