SEC Faces Censorship Accusations Over Delayed Academic Paper

The US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) is facing accusations of censorship following its actions to delay the publication of an academic paper for nine months. The paper, which examines the impact of audit regulation on smaller firms, allegedly criticizes the SEC's Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB) for favoring the Big Four audit firms over smaller competitors. This controversy has sparked a debate over the SEC's role and its regulatory practices, raising concerns about transparency and fairness in financial oversight.
