WASHINGTON (Reuters) – The head of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) said on Thursday that the agency has brought 700 enforcement actions in the 2020 fiscal year, a ‘significant’ amount after March 15.

In a virtual address kicking off “SEC Speaks 2020,” an annual SEC enforcement conference put on in conjunction with the Practicing Law Institute, Jay Clayton said the agency had also obtained financial remedies of more than $4 billion, up from a year prior.

The SEC has also reviewed disclosures of more than 10,700 funds–including more than 1,200 new funds–in 2020, an increase of 7% over last year, Clayton added.

“While the pandemic significantly impacted how we do our work, it did not negatively impact the work itself,” Clayton said.

“At the same time, we added to our work load,” the top market’s watchdog added in reference to the agency’s extended telework period that began https://www.reuters.com/article/us-health-coronavirus-sec/u-s-sec-staff-stay-home-after-employee-treated-for-coronavirus-symptoms-idUSKBN20X2FW

By John McCrank

NEW YORK, Oct 7 (Reuters) – A plan being considered by U.S. stock exchanges to leave New Jersey, where the bourses’ main electronic trading systems are located, to avoid a potential state tax on trading, could harm the industry, a senior U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission official said on Wednesday.

A sudden exit by the exchanges from northern New Jersey, where billions of dollars of trades are processed daily in three main data centers for all 16 U.S. stock exchanges, could be very costly and disruptive to market participants, said SEC Director of Trading and Markets, Brett Redfearn.

“We are watching it very closely. We are going to continue to talk to stakeholders about this, but needless to say, we certainly do have concerns,” he said at a virtual conference held by the Security Traders Association.

New Jersey is considering a tax of a quarter of

(RTTNews) – General Electric (GE) disclosed in a regulatory filing on Tuesday that it received a “Wells notice” from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission staff, saying that it is considering recommending a civil action against the company for possible violations of the securities laws.

GE has been informed that the issues the SEC staff may recommend that the SEC pursue relate to the historical premium deficiency testing for GE Capital’s run-off insurance operations, as well as GE’s disclosures relating to such run-off insurance operations.

The staff has not made a preliminary decision whether to recommend any action with respect to the other matters under investigation, the GE said in the regulatory filing.

GE noted that the Wells notice is neither a formal allegation nor a finding of wrongdoing.

Key Facts

According to the filing, SEC staff issued a Wells Notice to GE on September 30 in connection with possible violations of securities laws, specifically with respect to lending arm GE Capital’s accounting practices for certain insurance operations, as well as the relevant disclosures.

GE hit with SEC ‘Wells notice’ over massive insurance losses

Boston-based GE first disclosed the government investigation into its accounting practices in 2018, after a multibillion-dollar underestimate of its insurance business created a shortfall in its reserves. At the time, then-Chief Financial Officer Jamie Miller said on a conference call with analysts, “There’s nothing here I‘m overly concerned about.” The SEC also delved into how GE recognized revenue from long-term service agreements for the maintenance of industrial equipment, including power plants and jet engines.

In a statement Tuesday to The Washington Post, GE said it has “fully cooperated with the SEC’s investigation,” adding, “We strongly disagree with the recommendation of the SEC staff and will provide a response through the Wells notice process.” GE said it is providing documents and other information requested by the SEC.

The SEC declined to comment.

GE will be given an opportunity to make a case against enforcement. But if the government proceeds, it could
