秒Securities Settlements Often Don’t Come with Admission of Wrongdoing

作为彭博新闻columnist Ann Woolner points out, in most US Securities and Exchange Commission where a settlement is reached, the defendant usually ends up not having to admit to doing anything wrong. Instead, thebob200体育证券欺诈同意伴随着样板警告,该警告说,通过定居,原告在不“不承认或否认”不法行为的情况下这样做。

诚然,在某些情况下,在相关刑事案件中定罪或有罪请求明确表明确实采取了不当行动。也许还可以说,通过同意和解并支付巨额财务款项,原告正在承认不法行为而没有实际承认做错任何事情。但是,正如伍尔纳所指出的那样,并非所有美国证券交易委员会案件的被告都因所谓的证券欺诈而被指控。bob200体育即使在没有承认的情况下达成和解,欺诈的确切性质也常常不清楚。

秒spokesperson John Nestor says that of the over 600bob200体育证券诉讼filed every year, only about 20 of them ever go to trial. Nestor notes that the SEC’s primary objective in any civil case is to secure the proper sanctions against wrongdoers and not making them admit wrongdoing is a way to get this done. Many violators will give up a great deal to avoid being held liable in civil court. They also have little incentive to confess because this could help the securities fraud lawsuits of plaintiffs.

美国地方法院法官杰德·拉科夫(Jed Rakoff)说,让证券被告摆脱不承认自己所做的事情是“对公bob200体育众的损害”。同时,SEC专员还表示,他希望被告“承担责任”和“发出穆萨·库尔帕斯”。他还希望公司停止发布新闻稿,以表明SEC反应过度。
