Analyst manipulation enforcement actions

This library records 6 enforcement actions tagged analyst manipulation. Analyst manipulation is publishing research that does not reflect the analyst's genuine view, because the rating serves an investment banking relationship or a trading position rather than the client reading it.

Actions are listed newest first. Each row links to a case page carrying the regulator's own release and, where one was published, the complaint. For how this technique works and what statute it engages, read the analyst manipulation technique page.
