Details
The recent stock market volatility has propelled the CBOE Volatility Index, also known as the VIX, into the spotlight. There are many basic questions about looming VIX investigations that are surprisingly hard to answer. Is this an SEC or a CFTC case? What elements need to be proved to establish manipulation or attempted manipulation? Do the anti-manipulation provisions of the securities and commodity laws lead to the same answer in cases like this, or will the race to the courthouse determine the ultimate outcome? Join Paul J. Devlin, a partner at Richards Kibbe & Orbe LLP in New York, as he explores these topics.
