Bill Summary
Protection of Source Code Act
AI Summary
This bill, the Protection of Source Code Act, prohibits the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) from compelling a person to produce or furnish algorithmic trading source code or similar intellectual property to the Commission unless the Commission first issues a subpoena. The bill amends several securities laws, including the Securities Act of 1933, the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the Investment Company Act of 1940, and the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, to establish this procedural requirement before the SEC can obtain certain types of intellectual property from individuals and companies under its jurisdiction.
