Commission Announcements


SEC Adopts Rule Requiring Listing Standards For Compensation Committees and Compensation Advisers

The Securities and Exchange Commission has approved a rule that directs national securities exchanges to adopt listing standards for public company boards of directors and compensation advisers.

The new rule, required by the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, requires exchange listing standards to address:

  • The independence of the members on a compensation committee
  • The committee’s authority to retain compensation advisers
  • The committee’s consideration of the independence of any compensation advisers and
  • The committee’s responsibility for the appointment, compensation, and oversight of the work of any compensation adviser.

Once an exchange’s new listing standards are in effect, a listed company must meet the standards in order for its shares to continue trading on that exchange.

“This rule will help to enhance the board’s decision-making process on executive compensation matters, particularly the selection, engagement and oversight of compensation advisers, and will provide more transparency with respect to conflicts of interest of consultants engaged by boards,” said SEC Chairman Mary L. Schapiro.

The SEC also amended its proxy disclosure rules to require new disclosures from companies about their use of compensation consultants and conflicts of interest.

The new rule and rule amendments will take effect 30 days after publication in the Federal Register. No later than 90 days after effectiveness, each exchange that lists equity securities must propose listing standards that comply with the new rule. The new listing standards must be approved by the Commission within one year of the new rule becoming effective. (Press Rel. 2012-115)

SEC Chief Accountant James Kroeker to Leave the Commission

The Securities and Exchange Commission today announced that Chief Accountant James L. Kroeker will leave the SEC in July to enter the private sector.

Mr. Kroeker came to the SEC in 2007 as Deputy Chief Accountant and has been the agency’s Chief Accountant since January 2009. In that role, he has guided the operations of the SEC’s Office of the Chief Accountant and counseled the Commission on a wide range of accounting and auditing issues.

“Jim has provided superb counsel on a range of accounting and auditing related matters and has always stressed the importance of accounting to our investor protection mission,” said Chairman Mary L. Schapiro.

Mr. Kroeker said, “It has been a unique privilege to be a member of the Commission’s staff during this truly unprecedented time and to have had the opportunity to work alongside the talented and dedicated individuals in the SEC's Office of the Chief Accountant and across the Commission.”

At the SEC, Mr. Kroeker served as staff director of the agency’s study of fair value accounting standards, which was mandated by Congress in 2008, and led the efforts of the Office of the Chief Accountant to improve off-balance sheet accounting standards. He also guided the Commission’s efforts as it continues to consider convergence of U.S. and international accounting standards.

Before joining the SEC staff, Mr. Kroeker was partner at Deloitte & Touche LLP, most recently serving in the firm's National Office Accounting Services Group. From 1999 to 2001, Mr. Kroeker served as a Practice Fellow at the Financial Accounting Standards Board. (Press Rel. 2012-116)

Enforcement Proceedings

Securities and Exchange Commission Orders Hearing on Registration Suspension or Revocation Against Seven Public Companies For Failure to Make Required Periodic Filings

Today, the Commission instituted public administrative proceedings to determine whether to revoke or suspend for a period not exceeding twelve months the registrations of each class of the securities of seven companies for failure to make required periodic filings with the Commission:

  • Florida First Equities Corp. (n/k/a Data Imaging Services, Inc.)
  • Fooquest, Inc.
  • Foodvision.com, Inc. (FVSN)
  • Forefront, Inc. (f/k/a Anyox Resources, Inc.)
  • Futronix Group, Inc.
  • Genicom Corp. (n/k/a Oldgen, Inc.)
  • Global Online India, Inc. (GOLX)

In this Order, the Division of Enforcement (Division) alleges that the seven issuers are delinquent in their required periodic filings with the Commission.

In this proceeding, instituted pursuant to Exchange Act Section 12(j), a hearing will be scheduled before an Administrative Law Judge. At the hearing, the Administrative Law Judge will hear evidence from the Division and the Respondents to determine whether the allegations of the Division contained in the Order, which the Division alleges constitute failures to comply with Exchange Act Section 13(a) and Rules 13a-1 and 13a-13 thereunder, are true. The Administrative Law Judge in the proceeding will then determine whether the registrations pursuant to Exchange Act Section 12 of each class of the securities of these Respondents should be revoked or suspended for a period not exceeding twelve months. The Commission ordered that the Administrative Law Judge in this proceeding issue an initial decision not later than 120 days from the date of service of the order instituting proceedings. (Rel. 34-67221; File No. 3-14923)

SEC Charges Massachusetts Investment Adviser With Fraud and Obtains Preliminary Injunction and Asset Freeze

The Securities and Exchange Commission announced today that it has charged Gary J. Martel of Chelsea, Massachusetts with defrauding investors. The Commission’s complaint, filed in federal district court on June 19, 2012, alleges that from at least 2006 to the present, Martel, who did business as Martel Financial Group and MFG Funding, defrauded at least 12 investors in Massachusetts, Vermont and Florida of at least $1.6 million and likely obtained significantly more from other investors. Today, with Martel’s consent, the court entered a preliminary injunction freezing Martel’s assets and prohibiting him from continuing to violate the antifraud provisions of the federal securities laws.

The complaint alleges that Martel told investors, many of them retirees looking for a safe investment earning reliable income, that he would place their money in “pass-through bonds” or other products, which he assured investors were safe. In March 2012, Martel allegedly also solicited investments in a Facebook investment pool. In fact, however, the complaint alleges that the investments Martel offered were fictitious.

The Commission’s complaint alleges that Martel violated Section 17(a) of the Securities Act of 1933; Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 10b-5 thereunder; and Sections 206(1) and 206(2) of the Investment Advisers Act of 1940. In its action, the Commission seeks the entry of a permanent injunction against Martel, disgorgement of ill-gotten gains plus pre-judgment interest thereon, and the imposition of civil monetary penalties. [SEC v. Gary J. Martel, d/b/a Martel Financial Group, and MFG Funding 12-CV-11095 -FDS (D. Mass.)] (LR-22396)
