The Short Seller Enrichment Commission: Alex Platt Discusses His Latest SEC Whistleblower Research
Update: 2024-05-23
Description
Alex Platt, an Associate Professor at the University of Kansas School of Law, joins the inSecurities podcast to discuss his latest research paper, which documents the involvement of activist short sellers in the SEC whistleblower bounty program. Professor Platt explains why this phenomenon may undermine the SEC’s goal of rooting out and deterring misconduct, and he proposes modest tweaks to the whistleblower rules to address the issue.
On the episode, Chris and Kurt also chat with Professor Platt about his past whistleblower research, including his papers “The Whistleblower Industrial Complex” and “Going Dark(er): The SEC Whistleblower Program’s Least Transparent Annual Report in Agency History.”
