What is short selling? You might've heard of it in the wake of the meme stock events of Jan ’21.
We proposed rule changes at the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission to bring greater transparency into short selling—for regulators & investors.
A driving force for our Enforcement Division is holding bad actors accountable and delivering justice for investors.
Enforcement Director Gurbir S. Grewal shares some reflections on his first year at the SEC:
On July 18, 2022, Jaime Lizárraga was sworn into office as a Commissioner by Chair Gary Gensler. Commissioner Lizárraga was nominated by President Biden earlier this year and confirmed by the U.S. Senate on June 16.
Last week Mark T. Uyeda was sworn into office as a Commissioner.
We look forward to working with Commissioner Uyeda to advance our mission to protect investors, maintain fair, orderly, and efficient markets, and facilitate capital formation.
