The Securities and Exchange Commission today announced the institution of administrative and cease-and-desist proceedings against Winter Park, Fla.-based Park Financial Group, Inc. and its principal, Gordon Cantley. In the Order Instituting Proceedings, the Division of Enforcement alleges that Park and Cantley aided and abetted and caused a pump-and-dump scheme involving the securities of Spear & Jackson, Inc. and failed to file Suspicious Activity Reports (SARs) reporting suspicious transactions, in violation of the firm's record-keeping obligations.
The Commission has already obtained injunctive relief against Dennis P. Crowley, the former chief executive officer of Spear & Jackson, for violations of the antifraud, registration and reporting provisions of the federal securities laws in connection with his role in the pump-and-dump scheme.

Swap: In general, the exchange of one asset or liability for a similar asset or liability
Swap: In general, the exchange of one asset or liability for a similar asset or liability for the purpose of lengthening or shortening maturities, or raising or lowering coupon rates, to maximize revenue or minimize financing costs. This may entail selling one securities issue and buying another in foreign currency; it may entail buying a currency on the spot market and simultaneously selling it forward. Swaps also may involve exchanging income flows; for example, exchanging the fixed rate coupon stream of a bond for a variable rate payment stream, or vice versa, while not swapping the principal component of the bond. Swaps are generally traded over-the-counter.
