Today, the NYU Pollack Center for Law & Business and Cornerstone Research launched a new database that tracks SEC enforcement actions against public companies going back to the beginning of the SEC’s FY 2010 (October 1, 2009). The Securities Enforcement Empirical Database (“SEED”) tracks information including defendants’ names and types, violations, venues, and resolutions. A portion of SEED is currently available to the general public, and a more extensive version will be available for academic scholars.
