Daniel Gallagher

Former SEC Commissioner Dan Gallagher has strong opinions of Dodd-Frank and an insider’s view of the current and coming regulatory environment. Having witnessed first-hand the SEC response to the financial crisis, as well as the liquidation of Lehman Brothers and the downfall of Bernie Madoff, he knows what the SEC should be spending its time on—and what is good for businesses. He is uniquely positioned to speak to regulatory change and how new securities and trading laws will impact the financial and corporate worlds. Outspoken, forward-thinking, and self-deprecating, Dan’s speeches bring to life the pivotal SEC moments we all read about in the Wall Street Journal, reflect on the “critically important” SEC response to come, and break down what it will all mean for the audience at hand.
