As result of ongoing concerns about the adequacy of disclosures provided to investors about the Securities Investor Protection Corporation (SIPC) and investors' responsibilities to protect their investments, GAO issued a report in 2001 entitled Securities Investor Protection: Steps Needed to Better Disclose SIPC Policies to Investors (GAO-01-653). GAO was asked to determine the status of recommendations made to the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and SIPC in that report. GAO was also asked to review a number of issues involving excess SIPC insurance, private insurance securities firms purchase to cover accounts that are in excess of SIPC's statutory limits. https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/GAOREPORTS-GAO-03-811/html/GAOREPORTS-GAO-03-811.htm https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/GAOREPORTS-GAO-03-811/pdf/GAOREPORTS-GAO-03-811.pdf GAO-03-811 https://www.govinfo.gov/app/details/GAOREPORTS-GAO-03-811 Other Written Product GAO-03-811; Securities Investor Protection: Update on Matters Related to the Securities Investor Protection Corporation; Investment insurance Investment planning Strategic planning Information disclosure Securities regulation Internal controls Title 15 Section 78ddd 15 U.S.C. 78ddd
