  • Overview of Edgar, XBRL and iXBRL.
  • To examine the critical components involved in each step of the SEC mission statement

Course Overview

As outlined in our introductory course to Understanding the SEC, there are many compliance rules and regulations that publicly traded companies must follow.  In addition, the SEC has far reaching powers in the oversight of the various legislations and can assess penalties to companies (or accounting firms), who do not adequately comply with those mandates.

While most violations of securities laws are enforced by the SEC and the various securities regulatory organizations it monitors, state securities regulators can also enforce statewide securities blue sky laws. The SEC also works with federal and state law enforcement agencies to carry out actions against actors alleged to be in violation of the securities laws.
