| Arthur Levitt: Boardroom Lessons for Biden and Congress Posted: January 18, 2022 at 06:23 PM (Tuesday)Corporate America has faced governance problems similar to those in the capital. If America were a corporation, investors and regulators would consider its corporate governance a mess. CEO Joe Biden can’t seem to agree with the board—Congress—on strategy, priorities, the budget, or pretty much anything else. Some directors are going ... | |
| Arthur Levitt: History Has a Warning for GameStop Traders Posted: January 27, 2021 at 06:30 AM (Wednesday)The SEC can take steps right now to curb the day-trading frenzy and help safeguard the investing public. They say history occurs first as tragedy, then as farce — I fear we're about to see that in U.S. financial markets. Two decades ago, U.S. financial markets were riding all-time records. Day traders were using chat rooms to swap what ... | |
| Arthur Levitt: If Corporate Diversity Works, Show Me the Money Posted: January 20, 2021 at 06:00 PM (Wednesday)Nasdaq wants to mandate wider representation on its companies’ boards but has little proof of the benefits. Corporate directors are called on to do a few important things: Hire a CEO and oversee management, provide strategic direction, protect and promote the interests of investors, and ensure the company’s books are honest. Now, many ... | |
| Michael Mann and Arthur Levitt: The SEC’s China Evasion Posted: May 6, 2020 at 07:13 PM (Wednesday)The commission’s ‘buyer beware’ announcement looks tough but actually is irresponsible. Securities markets in the U.S. have long been the center of the universe for mobilizing and allocating capital. Registration with the Securities and Exchange Commission is the gold standard for a system that allows investors and issuers to choose ... | |
| Arthur Levitt: Mutual Funds Are Still Keeping Secrets Posted: February 3, 2020 at 07:17 PM (Monday)The Securities and Exchange Commission should press for better disclosures, not fewer. In my career in the securities industry, I have seen that a rising stock market brings falling interest in transparency, risk awareness and investor protections. With every new high in the Dow Jones industrial average someone seeks to further diminish our ... | |
| Arthur Levitt: The SEC Threatens to Go Soft on Internal Controls Posted: August 18, 2019 at 04:04 PM (Sunday)A proposal to exempt certain companies from a full audit would encourage fraud and hurt investors. Sometimes the best argument for an idea is also the most damning. In May, as the Securities and Exchange Commission weighed a proposal to exempt more small companies from certain audit requirements, Republican SEC Commissioner Hester Peirce, ... | |
| Arthur Levitt: Don't Let Financial Advisers Off the Hook Posted: December 7, 2015 at 01:37 PM (Monday)Ronald Reagan used to say that the surest way to live forever was to become a federal program. If that's right, the surest way to die is to be studied by Congress. In Washington, becoming the subject of legislative scrutiny virtually guarantees inaction, the disappearance of funding and political support, and ultimate demise.That's precisely ... | |
| Arthur Levitt: A Small-Cap Idea With Little to Recommend It Posted: March 2, 2015 at 06:51 PM (Monday)The SEC’s plan to create special exchanges sounds like a solution in search of a problem. Officials from the Securities and Exchange Commission are contemplating setting up a special exchange for small-cap companies—those with a market capitalization of less than $250 million. Proponents say many small companies need access to public markets, ... | |
| Burton Malkiel and Arthur Levitt: We're All High-Frequency Traders Now Posted: April 10, 2014 at 06:39 PM (Thursday)Faster buying and selling is being blamed unfairly for some problems caused by the fragmentation of markets.
A firestorm of criticism has erupted again against high-frequency trading. It is alleged to give a select group of traders an unfair advantage over the public and even over institutional investors such as mutual funds and pension funds. It has been likened to electronic ... | |
| Arthur Levitt: 'Influence Peddling' Makes the World Go Round Posted: December 25, 2013 at 03:55 PM (Wednesday)The SEC's attack on American companies' hiring practices in China is scurrilous and hypocritical. As someone who spent the first few years of his career in the shadow of a well-known family member (my father was New York state comptroller), I can say that it was a great asset to me. But not in the ways people ... | |
| Arthur Levitt: SEC Missed Chance on Money Funds, Should Step Aside Now Posted: February 25, 2013 at 06:30 PM (Monday)A former member of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission recently asked me to co-sign a letter urging a federal oversight body to refrain from taking regulatory action normally left to the SEC. I believe deeply in the independence of the agency I once led, but in this case, I could not place my loyalty to the organization above the ... | |
| Arthur Levitt: Why Couldn't Wall Street Weather a Storm? Posted: November 6, 2012 at 06:25 PM (Tuesday)With a proper backup plan, the New York Stock Exchange wouldn't have had to shut because a 'post-tropical cyclone' hit Manhattan..
Hurricane Sandy's impact on U.S. stock and bond markets is just the latest example of inattention to the stability, security and continuity of basic infrastructure. The result of this inattention is a financial market that aspires to be world-class, but in one critical ... | |
