According to regulatory filings, the Madoff firm had more than $17 billion in assets under management as of the beginning of 2008. It appears that virtually all assets of the advisory business are missing.

Madoff founded the firm in 1960 and has been a prominent member of the securities industry throughout his career. Madoff served as vice chairman of the NASD, a member of its board of governors, and chairman of its New York region. He was also a member of NASDAQ Stock Market’s board of governors and its executive committee and served as chairman of its trading committee.

Complaints charge the defendants with violations of the anti-fraud provisions of the Securities Act of 1933, the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the Investment Advisers Act of 1940. In addition to emergency and interim relief, the SEC seeks a final judgment permanently enjoining the defendants from future violations of the antifraud provisions of the federal securities laws and ordering them to pay financial penalties and disgorgement of ill-gotten gains with prejudgment interest.

The SEC’s investigation is continuing.

“Bernard L. Madoff: The Five Federal Court Cases Filed December 2008″ delivers court documents and transcripts that provide in-depth facts and background regarding Madoff’s business practices — detailed information not found in newspapers or magazines.

Welcome to the Media community! Your business is successful, and you’ve learned a few things on your professional journey. Why not become the moderator of this community? Community moderators are senior managers who lead discussions that take place via blogs and discussion boards here on IncBizNet.com.

Moderating an IncBizNet community will provide additional exposure for your company and offer an excellent opportunity to share your knowledge and interact with an expert audience. As a moderator, your time commitment would consist primarily of leading by posting occasional two to three-paragraph posts to this community’s blog and posting/answering questions to the discussion boards. Executives from executives on IncBizNet are able to post follow-up questions, comments, and other reactions. We also strongly encourage monthly gatherings either in person or via phone (we'll help set up the calls).

We’re excited to provide a collective space where executives from privately held executives can talk about specific issues that affect their businesses! If you’d like to be considered as a moderator for the Media community, please contact Twanna A. Hines at thines@inc.com.
