An SEC Insider on Insider Trading and Broken Windows

Vinson & Elkins partner Rebecca Fike joins the inSecurities podcast to talk about insider trading, the SEC’s use of artificial intelligence and data analytics to root out misconduct, and the Enforcement Division’s focus on reporting and disclosure cases, including Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) reporting. She also explains how the Commission’s focus on charging even technical violations feels a bit like the return of the “broken windows” approach to enforcement. Rebecca draws on her 10 years of experience in the Division of Enforcement to explain what captures the staff’s attention and how they investigate.
