John C. Coffee Jr., Adolf A. Berle professor of law at Columbia Law School and director of its Center on Corporate Governance, writes: Over recent weeks, the SEC has looked much like Inspector Clouseau futilely chasing the Pink Panther in the form of Bernie Madoff. But for the longer run, the greater problem for the SEC is not that it cannot detect a well-hidden fraud (embarrassing as that is), but that it seems unable to adopt meaningful rules that respond effectively to the central problems that caused the current financial crisis. For example, on Dec. 3, the SEC adopted a series of rules relating to credit-rating agencies. Sadly, these new rules fail to address seriously the key facts that rating agencies inflated their grades and conducted little, if any, due diligence.
