Disgorgement or Accounting for Profits? An Analysis of Liu v. SEC




Reasonably Speaking show

Summary: This episode will discuss the Supreme Court’s decision in Liu v. SEC, both the Securities Act of 1933 and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, and whether the Court’s reference to “equitable relief” includes the remedy of “disgorgement.” Douglas Laycock, who filed an amiscus brief in support of neither party, will lead this discussion.
