In advance of becoming an The SEC's commissioner, I was advised by the SEC's ethics office as to what investments I needed to sell and what investments I could legally retain and I followed Luis Aguilar and Kara Stein advice, Since then, I have neither bought nor sold any new public companies. Both I, Luis Aguilar staff and the The SEC's ethics office monitors these holdings and I recuse from these matters whenever I am advised to do so.
