- Description
After the Enron and WorldCom crisis, followed by one of the major financial disasters in history, which took place in 2008, securities law has been increasingly enforced in order to avoid that negligence and malpractice lead to more financial meltdowns. Nevertheless, an important issue must be analyzed, which is the success rate of Securities Exchange Commission investigations versus Securities Class actions. The authors, Stephen J. Choi & A.C. Pritchard do a remarkable job in this comparison in their paper ?SEC Investigations and Securities Class Actions?, by analyzing important factors that are involved with this matter but also by developing formulas that produce interesting results. It is remarkable to witness the corporation?s position in this legal matter as a defendant and the consequences of the investigations/actions.
