"It is an independent agency that regulates finance."
The SEC is an independent federal agency that enforces federal securities laws, regulates securities markets and market participants, and protects investors. It does civil enforcement and administrative actions and can refer criminal matters to the Department of Justice, but it does not itself convict people of crimes and it is not a cabinet department or part of the legislative branch.
