  • Remarks At SEC Speaks: Increasing Product Complexity: What’s At Stake? - SEC Commissioner Kara M. Stein, Washington D.C., Feb. 23, 2018

    Date 23/02/2018

    Good morning. Thank you, Bill [Hinman] for that kind introduction.

    As always, it is a pleasure to be with you today at SEC Speaks.

    Before I continue, I will remind you that the views I express here today are my own and may not necessarily reflect those of my fellow Commissioners, or of the staff of the Commission.

    It’s my understanding that this is the 47th year of SEC Speaks. Much has changed in our capital markets since 1972. Computers now allow investors to access a myriad of investment options from common equity to complex financial instruments within minutes. Both large and small investors have more investment options at their fingertips—and I mean that literally—than ever before. Computers also allow financial products to be developed and sold more quickly than ever before. This high rate of financial innovation and engineering can be beneficial, but it also can present challenges. I still remember the ashen faces of the Secretary of the Treasury and the Chair of the Federal Reserve when they came to the Senate Banking Committee seeking authorization for a massive federal government intervention during the financial crisis. Financial engineering of complex institutional investment products (such as credit default swaps and collateralized debt obligations) were at the heart of the financial crisis.
