The SEC Loses an Arrow from Its Quiver in Liu v. SEC | Arnall Golden Gregory LLP – JDSupra

By Securities Docket on June 26, 2020, 8:29 am

On June 22, 2020, the U.S. Supreme Court published its decision in Liu v. Securities and Exchange Commission, confirming the SEC’s authority to seek disgorgement from federal courts in enforcement actions. This was an important question that the Court raised but did not answer in 2017. The confirmation, however, comes with limitations not previously imposed on the SEC, which include a limit on the SEC’s recovery to the net profits of the unlawful activity and a requirement that recovered proceeds be returned to investors whose money is disgorged.
