The SEC failed to uncover Bernard Madoff's decades-long Ponzi scheme despite receiving multiple substantive complaints that should have led them to question his purported trading and exposed the fraud. An investigation found SEC examiners were incompetent and negligent in their repeated examinations of Madoff's business. While no direct evidence was found of improper influence on the SEC's work, the agency clearly had ample opportunities to discover the fraud but failed to conduct a thorough and competent investigation. As a result, Madoff was able to steal an estimated $65 billion from victims and distribute substantial sums to family members as salaries, loans, and profits over nearly four decades before his arrest.
