Securities and Exchange Commission's
International Technical Assistance Program

SEC's flagship training Institutes are held in Washington D.C. and continue to draw record numbers of regulators from emerging and developed markets, including 147 delegates from 70 countries at the International Institute for Securities Market Development in April, 2006. Securities commissions and stock exchanges are increasingly requesting the expertise and experience of SEC staff in dealing with insider trading, market manipulation, corporate governance, inspections and compliance, and a host of other market development and enforcement issues. Vietnam, Kuwait, and Iraq have recently sought SEC's assistance in drafting new securities laws. In the last eighteen months, the SEC staff has conducted or substantially participated in regional or bilateral training programs in China, India, Malaysia, Philippines, Thailand, Vietnam, Ecuador, Peru, Trinidad and Tobago, Bahrain, and Saudi Arabia.
