SEC Re-Proposes Conflict of Interest Rule for Asset-Backed Securities

 

Please join us as the authors of our recent Legal Update provide an overview of the SEC’s (Securities and Exchange Commission) recently proposed rule to prohibit conflicts of interest in certain securitizations as required under the Dodd-Frank Act. A re-proposal of a 2011 proposed rule, the re-proposal shares some of the same issues and concerns and may be even worse in some respects. If adopted as re-proposed, the rule’s prohibition would have profound consequences for securitization markets.
