The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has initiated legal proceedings against Elon Musk due to his non-compliance with a subpoena. The financial authority is investigating whether the billionaire violated federal securities law with his Twitter purchase last year.
由于埃隆·马斯克不遵守传票,美国证券交易委员会(SEC)已对他提起法律诉讼。金融当局正在调查这位亿万富翁去年收购 Twitter 是否违反了联邦证券法。
The SEC stated that Musk failed to appear to testify last month as requested despite having been served the subpoena since May. According to the regulator, it needs Musk’s testimony to obtain information relevant to its legitimate and lawful investigation.
美国证券交易委员会表示,尽管马斯克自 5 月份以来就已收到传票,但他上个月未能按要求出庭作证。监管机构表示,需要马斯克的证词才能获取与其正当合法调查相关的信息。
The SEC’s application for an order, filed in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California, relates to an ongoing investigation into potential violations of federal securities laws. Musk’s 2022 acquisitions of Twitter stock and his corresponding statements and SEC filings are under scrutiny. The SEC seeks Musk’s testimony to uncover information relevant to its lawful investigation, information that isn’t in the SEC’s possession currently.
美国证券交易委员会向美国加州北区地方法院提交的命令申请涉及对可能违反联邦证券法的正在进行的调查。马斯克 2022 年收购 Twitter 股票以及他的相应声明和 SEC 文件正在接受审查。美国证券交易委员会寻求马斯克的证词,以揭露与其合法调查相关的信息,但目前美国证券交易委员会并不掌握这些信息。
Musk’s failure to comply with the subpoena is noteworthy given that he had agreed to testify in the SEC’s San Francisco Regional Office on a mutually agreed date in September 2023, and had been served with the subpoena in May 2023. Musk raised no objections until two days before his scheduled testimony, when he informed the SEC of his non-attendance, offering several objections for the first time.
值得注意的是,马斯克未能遵守传票,因为他已同意在 2023 年 9 月双方商定的日期在 SEC 旧金山地区办事处作证,并已于 2023 年 5 月收到传票。马斯克直到两天后才提出异议在他预定的作证之前,他通知美国证券交易委员会他没有出席,并首次提出了一些反对意见。
The regulatory body filed the matter at a federal district court, examining Musk’s statements and disclosures about stock transactions linked to the social media platform. While the SEC continues its fact-finding investigation, the application for an order compelling Musk’s compliance is still pending the court’s ruling.
该监管机构向联邦地区法院提起诉讼,审查马斯克关于与社交媒体平台相关的股票交易的声明和披露。尽管美国证券交易委员会继续进行事实调查,但强制马斯克遵守命令的申请仍在等待法院的裁决。
Musk has ambitious plans for the company now branded as X, including building it into a financial institution. However, he did not clarify whether Twitter’s payment features might involve cryptocurrency, despite hinting at possible Dogecoin payment options in April 2022.
马斯克对这家现在名为 X 的公司制定了雄心勃勃的计划,包括将其打造成一家金融机构。然而,他没有澄清 Twitter 的支付功能是否可能涉及加密货币,尽管在 2022 年 4 月暗示可能会出现狗狗币支付选项。
With Musk’s intentions for Twitter’s financial transformation under the spotlight, his unfulfilled commitment to the SEC now links the future of his digital ambitions with the ongoing securities investigation. As such, the wider implications of this development on both the tech and financial industries remain to be seen.
随着马斯克对 Twitter 财务转型的意图备受关注,他对 SEC 未履行的承诺现在将他的数字野心的未来与正在进行的证券调查联系起来。因此,这一发展对科技和金融行业的更广泛影响仍有待观察。
