For those of you who will be in the D.C. area on Monday, April 19, I invite you to join me at the National Press Club for a live panel discussion featuring four current and former top officials of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. This free breakfast event (8:00 am to 10:00 am) features the following extraordinary panel:

The Honorable Stanley Sporkin of the Gavel Consulting Group; former judge on the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia (1985-2000) and former Director of the SEC's Division of Enforcement (1974-1981)

Thomas Sporkin, Chief, SEC Enforcement's Office of Market Intelligence

George Curtis, partner at Gibson, Dunn & Crutcher; former Regional and Deputy Director of the SEC's Division of Enforcement (2006-2009)

John Reed Stark, Managing Director, Stroz Friedberg; former founder and Chief, SEC Enforcement's Office of Internet Enforcement (1998-2009)

The panel will address the numerous pressing and historic issues now facing the SEC. Topics are expected to include the Enforcement Division's current top priorities, its ongoing wide-scale restructuring, the future of the Wells process, the appropriate metrics for measuring the Enforcement Division's success, the Division's role in responding to the financial crisis, and much more.

I will be moderating this live breakfast event and it is free and open to the public. Attendees must register in advance below, and space is limited.
