According to a letter from Chairman Mike Burt to the SEC chairman, this view stems from the time frame of the charges and the arrest of Rob Bankman-Fried. The letter also mentioned that under US laws and regulations, the Financial Information Services Commission has the right to regulate SEC activities.
