On October 7, 2015, members of the Lead Director Network (LDN) were joined by chief legal officer and general counsel (GC) guests in Washington, DC, for a discussion with Andrew Ceresney, director of the Division of Enforcement at the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).

The SEC’s Division of Enforcement is charged with protecting investors by investigating possible violations of securities laws and prosecuting civil cases in federal courts and administrative proceedings. Mr. Ceresney joined the SEC in 2013 as co-director of the Division of Enforcement and became the sole head of enforcement in 2014.
