  • European Banking Authority Updates On Future EU-Wide Stress Tests

  • FCPA, Disclosure, And Internal Controls Issues Arising In The Pharmaceutical Industry, Andrew Ceresney, SEC Director, Division Of Enforcement, Remarks At CBI's Annual Pharmaceutical Compliance Congress In Washington D.C., March 3, 2015

    Date 03/03/2015

    Thank you for that kind introduction.  At the outset, 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 very excited to be here to discuss the SEC’s Enforcement program and some of our current priorities that are most relevant to the pharmaceutical industry.  I have tried to tailor my remarks to issues of interest to you; we cover a broad range of areas at the SEC but we certainly have a great impact on your industry.  First, I plan to address our efforts in the enforcement of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act across the pharmaceutical industry.  We have had a number of cases in this area that I think have borne fruit in terms of increased compliance and focus on FCPA issues.  And then I’ll turn to certain disclosure and accounting issues facing the industry.
