The SEC’s enforcement activity so far this fiscal year trails the record levels in the 2015 fiscal year. According to a recent report from Cornerstone Research (here), the SEC’s enforcement activity through the end of the fiscal third quarter (on June 30, 2016) is eight percent below the activity levels during the same period in FY 2015, largely as a result of an activity decline in the third quarter. At this point, even if the agency is active in the fourth fiscal quarter, it seems unlikely that by the end of the fiscal year on September 30, 2016 that the agency’s enforcement activity will catch up to the prior year.
