Merrill Lynch to Pay Fined $12 Million - Compliance Failure

SEC Charges Merrill Lynch and Parent Company for Failing to File Suspicious Activity Reports (Compliance Failure) - Fined $6M to Settle Charges with SEC and another $6M to FINRA Washington, DC (STL.News) Compliance Failure - The Securities and Exchange Commission Tuesday announced charges against Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated (ML) and its parent company BAC North America Holding Co. (BACNAH) for failing to file hundreds of Suspicious Activity Reports (SARs) from 2009 to late 2019.  ML agreed to pay a $6 million penalty to settle the SEC charges, and in a parallel action, Merrill Lynch agreed to pay a separate $6 million fine to settle charges brought by the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA). According to the SEC’s order, BACNAH assumed responsibility for creating and implementing ML’s SAR policies and procedures and for filing ML SARs.  Over the course of a decade, however, BACNAH improperly used a $25,000 threshold instead of the required $5,000 threshold for reporting suspicious transactions or attempted transactions where a suspect may have been seeking to use Merrill Lynch to facilitate criminal activity and could not be identified.  As a result, BACNAH caused Merrill Lynch’s failure to file hundreds of required SARs. “Broker-dealers have a critical obligation to report suspicious activity in their accounts,” said Katharine E. Zoladz, Co-Acting Regional Director of the Los Angeles Regional Office.  “Merrill Lynch and BACNAH did not file hundreds of Merrill Lynch SARs because they failed to comply with one of the most basic requirements for a SAR program.” The SEC’s order finds that ML violated the books and records provisions of Section 17(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 17a-8 thereunder and that BACNAH caused those violations.  Without admitting or denying the SEC’s findings, Merrill Lynch and BACNAH agreed to cease and desist from committing or causing violations of those provisions, and ML also agreed to a censure and the aforementioned $6 million civil penalty. The SEC’s investigation was conducted by staff at the Los Angeles Regional Office and supervised by Finola H. Manvelian.  The SEC appreciates the assistance of FINRA.

Jewish singers of Western classical music

Compiling this list — the last in this series for the foreseeable future, although I’m well aware that there are others that I could do — has been a frustrating experience.

What I’m looking for, ultimately, is self-identification, which isn’t always forthcoming. And you can’t always trust Encyclopedia Judaica, which follows Israeli policy in determining Jewish status, i.e., one Jewish grandparent makes you Jewish, no matter what. (This is settled law in Israel, and it’s caused no end of trouble.)

Also, I’m not willing to knowingly include here the likes of Alma Gluck, who was a practicing Christian Scientist for most of her adult life, nor Richard Tauber, a life-long, if largely nominal, Roman Catholic who was bewildered to learn, in 1933, that he did in fact have a Jewish grand-parent. Since I’ve tended to err on the side of caution, there may be artists who should be on this list but aren’t.

You also won’t find here a number of artists whom my instincts tell me must be Jewish, but who are being, or were in their time, insufferably coy about it. (Jake Arditti, Beniamino Gigli, Jonas Kaufman, Selma Kurtz, Margarete Matzenauer, Jakub Józef Orliński, Annie Rosen, Regina Sarfaty: I’m looking at all of you.)

I’ve had to be vague about birthplaces in some cases, because some of these singers were born in jurisdictions that either no longer exist or whose names have changed. (Poland didn’t exist as a nation when Rosa Raisa was born there, and I don’t know what part of Poland — Austrian, German, or Russian — she came from.)

What applies to the earlier lists also applies here: I’ve included many of the younger ones solely on the basis of reputation, without having heard them. Not all are or were A-listers, but they are all people who sing or sang Western classical music for a living, or taught others to do so, or a combination of the two.

And finally, I should point out that while stage names are now a rare phenomenon in classical music, they were fairly common in the past — especially for singers! (Richard Tucker was born Reuben Ticker, for example.)

Romanticism: Women and Realism in the poetry of William Wordsworth

Romanticism: Women and Realism in the poetry of William Wordsworth

The exotic, oriental, mystic and ‘Other’ qualities of Romanticism allow for the erotic and sexualised undertones of women in an escapist vein. When we invert this model, grounded in realist concerns, the naturalistic poetry of William Wordsworth appears sympathetic to the cause of women in their adversity. Critics such as Katharine Merrill have agreed that Wordsworth’s brand of romanticism has…
