U.S. securities and futures regulators have brought all, or at least almost all, the financial crisis-related enforcement actions they plan to, and are moving on to new and potentially more challenging inquiries regarding new regulations imposed in the wake of the crisis, officials said Tuesday. The officials – Andrew Ceresney, co-director of the Securities and Exchange Commission Enforcement Division; Brad Bennett, head of enforcement at the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, the securities industry self-regulatory organization; and David Meister, who recently left as Commodity Futures Trading Commission enforcement chief – spoke at a New York City Bar Association event. The regulators were on a panel moderated by Debevoise & Plimpton law partner Bruce E. Yannett. The SEC is completing its rules on, among other things, swap dealing, risk management, information firewalls and clearing, as mandated by the Dodd-Frank and the Jumpstart Our Business Startups (JOBS) – Acts, Ceresney
