The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission in 2014 is preparing for “a very busy year in enforcement” and an expansion of its arsenal against wrongdoing on Wall Street, SEC Chairwoman Mary Jo White said Monday.
The SEC’s agenda this year includes the conclusion of all major investigations connected to the 2008 financial crisis, more admissions of guilt in settlements with the agency, and new tools and new regulations intended to combat financial fraud and ensure market integrity, White said in remarks prepared for the 41st Annual Securities Regulation Institute in Coronado, Calif.
