Over the past year, the Commission has been engaged in a broad range of rulemaking projects and other initiatives to implement the newly-enacted Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act and the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act.  The Commission has been working to implement the provisions of the JOBS Act, including with regard to the use of general solicitation and general advertising in certain private offerings, new exemptions for crowdfunding and other limited securities offerings, and the registration and reporting thresholds under the Exchange Act, as well as studies about tick size and issuer disclosure requirements.  The Commission also has continued its efforts with regard to implementation of the Dodd-Frank Act, including issuance of a “roadmap” on phase-in of derivatives regulation, approval of new rules and interpretations on key terms for regulating derivatives, and approval of new rules relating to clearing agencies, investment advisory performance fees, specialized corporate disclosures, and listing standards for compensation committees and compensation consultants.  In addition, the Commission adopted new requirements related to the creation, implementation, and maintenance of a consolidated order tracking system by self-regulatory organizations, continued its work on a key initiative relating to regulation of the asset-backed securities market, and issued a report and recommendations on the municipal securities market.

The Commission continues to accelerate its efforts to protect investors and promote the integrity of the marketplace.  At the heart of these efforts are increasingly effective programs in enforcement and examination, including specialized units with expertise in complex, high priority areas; various specialization initiatives throughout the agency to proactively identify high-risk areas for further examination and investigation; and use of targeted approaches to better detect links and patterns suggesting misconduct.  Complementing these efforts are a series of measures to encourage corporate insiders and others to come forward with evidence of wrongdoing, including a Cooperation Program that establishes incentives for individuals and companies to fully and truthfully cooperate and assist with investigations, and a Whistleblower Program that gives the agency authority to compensate individuals who provide useful information about violations of the federal securities laws, thus allowing the Commission to bring stronger cases and shut down fraudulent schemes earlier than would otherwise be possible.

This year more than ever, you will want to hear from the Chairman, Commissioners, and senior staff about the SEC’s initiatives and priorities at The SEC Speaks in 2013.
