  • Remarks At Society Of Corporate Secretaries & Governance Professionals By SEC Commissioner Daniel M. Gallagher

    Date 12/07/2013

    Thank you Bob [Lamm] for your very kind introduction.  I am delighted to be able to participate in this conference and to address so many of the governance professionals who are on the front lines dealing with the myriad of mandates set forth in federal and state laws and regulations.  In addition to engaging with shareholders, drafting disclosure documents, and dealing with the everyday fire drills that occur at your companies, you and your teams ensure that board members and management have the appropriate knowledge and resources to properly discharge their duties.  This is a full day’s work, which is why so many of you often end up doing board minutes at night.  While much of the work you do may sometimes seem thankless, the importance of your work is certainly not lost on me or, I hope, on your CEOs and boards.

  • “Just Say’n”: Statement Of CFTC Commissioner Bart Chilton On Cross-Border Guidance And Exemptive Order, Washington, DC

    Date 12/07/2013

    We’ve done a lot of rules and we’ve done way more than other financial regulators. We have final clearing and transparency rules, recordkeeping, reporting, and registration rules, and we’re working hard to finalize other important areas (like, just gotta say, position limits and I hope we more actively engage on Volcker). We’ve done a heckuva job on a lot of issues. All of these are super important. Nothing we’ve done, however, will fully succeed without the critical action that I hope we will take today. Just say’n.
