  • Statement On Rule Amendments Shortening The Settlement Cycle, SEC Commissioner Caroline A. Crenshaw, Feb. 15, 2023

    Date 15/02/2023

    It has now been over two years since GameStop and other “meme” stocks brought market structure into the spotlight. While the events of January 2021 are no longer front-page news, the issues that they highlighted related to market structure and retail investing are still front of mind for the SEC. Since then, the SEC has proposed new rules on a wide range of issues implicated in the GameStop events, including securities lending, short sale disclosures, and most recently, a package of equity market structure reforms designed to improve outcomes for investors by increasing competition, transparency, and integrity in the markets.

  • Increasing Market Fairness And Efficiency For Investors, SEC Commissioner Jaime Lizárraga, Feb. 15, 2023

    Date 15/02/2023

    The Commission’s ongoing project to modernize many of the rules that govern the day-to-day operations of our capital markets is essential to advancing the interests of the investing public. Where there are unnecessary risks and inefficiencies, it is our responsibility to tackle them and ensure that we fulfill our mission of maintaining fair, orderly and efficient markets.

  • Protecting Investors’ Assets, SEC Commissioner Jaime Lizárraga, Feb. 15, 2023

    Date 15/02/2023

    Protecting investors’ assets is a fundamental component of the SEC’s mission. The proposal before us today strengthens and modernizes an existing rule that was designed to provide meaningful and enhanced protections directly to investors, and in particular, to working families who hire an investment adviser.

  • Statement On Safeguarding Advisory Client Assets Proposal, SEC Commissioner Caroline A. Crenshaw, Feb. 15, 2023

    Date 15/02/2023

    I am pleased to support today’s proposal relating to amendments to the Custody Rule, or the newly minted “Safeguarding Advisory Client Assets” Rule.

  • Statement On Safeguarding Advisory Client Assets Proposal, SEC Commissioner Hester M. Peirce, Feb. 15, 2023

    Date 15/02/2023

    Thank you, Chair Gensler. Safeguarding client assets is at the heart of investor protection. Accordingly, I had anticipated supporting a proposal to amend the custody rule, which, after fourteen eventful years, deserves another update. Significant aspects of the proposed approach and its implementation timeline, however, raise such great questions about the rule’s workability and breadth that I cannot support today’s proposal. I look forward to hearing from my colleagues today and from commenters during the comment period and hope that I can support the final safeguarding rule.
