I guess what I am really asking is did the SEC not spot this because it was not their job or because it was their job and they didn't do their job properly?

- sseveran 8y agoIt is probably considered their job but I don't have any confidence in the SEC to proactively investigate anything of real substance. However they did not even have to spot it since Mr. Markopolos turned up with a ton of evidence that it was a Ponzi scheme. They did not even do basic things like verify that he was actually trading.

- sseveran 8y agoThe courts in the US have long upheld that law enforcement (and probably by extension, regulators) are under no obligation to protect you.
