Justia.com Lawyer Directory Legal Answers Law Blogs ... Consumer Law Securities Fraud Share Overview Articles Web Resources Laws Glossary ... Law Blogs Overview Securities laws prohibit the use of fraudulent activities in connection with the offer, purchase or sale of securities. The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), a governmental agency established to monitor the securities market, regulates securities fraud. States also regulate securities fraud through individual state Securities Commissioners and state securities laws known as "Blue Sky Laws." Securities fraud may be committed by brokers, financial advisors or analysts, corporations or private investors. The most common types of securities fraud include misrepresentation, insider trading, and stock options fraud. Misrepresentation The majority of securities fraud cases in the United States involve Section 10b and Rule 10b-5 of the 1934 Securities Exchange Act . Section 10b is a general provision that prohibits any person from using fraud in connection with the purchase or sale of any security. Rule 10b-5 specifically prohibits making any false statements or omissions in connection with the sale or purchase of securities. A "false statement" is defined as any statement that misleads or creates a false impression. To be actionable under Rule 10b-5, the false statement or omission must be material. A statement is material if it would be important to a reasonable investor making an investment decision. Additionally, the statement or omission must be made with the intent to deceive, manipulate or defraud. Thus, reasonable mistakes of fact, made without a malicious intent, are not actionable under Rule 10b-5.

Home Jobs Fast Answers Site Map ... Press Releases Putnam Agrees to Make Restitution and Implement Immediate, Significant Structural Reforms in Partial Resolution of SEC Enforcement Action FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Washington, D.C., Nov. 13, 2003 The Securities and Exchange Commission today announced that Putnam Investment Management LLC (Putnam), a registered investment adviser located in Boston, Mass., agreed to the entry of an order in the Commission's administrative proceeding relating to alleged market-timing trades by certain of Putnam's employees. In the Order, Putnam has agreed to undertake significant and far-reaching corporate governance, compliance, and ethics reforms. Putnam has also agreed to a process for calculating and paying restitution for losses attributable to excessive short-term and market timing trading by its employees. The amount of civil penalty and other monetary relief to be paid by Putnam remains open and will be determined at a later date. In the Order, the Commission found that Putnam committed securities fraud by failing to disclose potentially self-dealing securities trading by several of its employees. The Commission also found that Putnam failed to take adequate steps to detect and deter such trading activity through its own internal controls and its supervision of investment management professionals. By virtue of this conduct, Putnam breached its fiduciary duties in violation of, among other things, the antifraud provisions of the Advisers Act. Putnam consented to the entry of the Commission's order without admitting or denying its findings, but has agreed not to contest the findings in connection with the later determination of a penalty and other monetary relief.

The trend of officers and directors defrauding and misleading investors has continued at a steady pace. Click here for Recently Filed Securities Class Actions . A direct result of this type of corporate malfeasance is a monetary loss for investors, which often are individuals that can least afford an investment loss. In 1995, Congress passed the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act ("PSLRA") in order to tip the balance of power back into the hands of investors. Indeed, any investor, regardless of the size of his or her investment, can initiate securities class action lawsuits when their purchase or sale of a security was due to a false or misleading statement, or an omission, by officers or directors of a public company. Corporate and securities fraud litigation insures honest financial reporting as well as integrity within the securities markets.

Securities Fraud Brokerages The following are some of the stock market brokerage firms addressed in the securities fraud class action lawsuit. Securities Fraud Class Action Lawsuit Securities Fraud Class Action Lawsuit Securities fraud class action lawsuits may emerge when the long anticipated investment bank fraud settlement agreement is made final.  Investors have suffered large financial losses because of the securities fraud.  Banks misled investors with biased stock research and those people that have suffered the damages as a result of the fraudulent activity may finally be able to recover monetary awards through securities fraud class action lawsuits.  Wall Street’s biggest firms have been involved in securities fraud that has been considered one of the most negative, discomforting occurrences in Wall Street history.  The uncovering of the Wall Street scandal is expected to result in the SEC approving what has been a very tedious task of reaching a $1.5 billion settlement with 10 Wall Street firms, and allowing investors the opportunity to take part in securities fraud class action lawsuits.  The settlement has taken nearly four months to reach, largely because the firms involved in the securities fraud were disagreeing about specific language in attempts for the firms to avoid future increased liability when securities fraud class actions develop.  Still, further delays on the SEC’s April 30, 2003 final announcement could occur because of any last minute arguments that arise.  For more information on securities fraud class actions

Among other things, Greenwood is alleged to have used the funds to purchase expensive collectible items and horses, as well as for other personal expenditures. Walsh is alleged to have misappropriated investor funds for himself, and to have made large cash payments to his ex-wife. Both Greenwood and Walsh executed promissory notes in favor of WG Investors with respect to the investor funds they misappropriated and to conceal trading losses. These promissory notes totaled approximately $293 million for Greenwood and approximately $261 million for Walsh. In February 2009, the National Futures Association (NFA) conducted an audit of WG Investors and related entities. In the audit, the NFA discovered that of approximately $812 million purportedly on the books of WG Investors, more than $794 million was booked as receivables due from Greenwood and Walsh and investments in entities that they controlled.
