Eugene Goldman was quoted in a June 17 Law360 story on President Obama’s proposed overhaul of the nation's financial regulatory structure. Mr. Goldman believes that the Securities and Exchange Commission fared well in the proposal because the agency did not end up losing a great deal of power to the Fed or consolidating with the CFTC. “If you look back four months ago, when people predicted doom and gloom for the agency's future, we now see the president's proposal as a declaration of confidence in Chairman Schapiro's ability to get the SEC back on its feet,” Mr. Goldman said.

José Luis Vittor was quoted by Energy Economist (July 2009) regarding Evo Morales’, Bolivia’s president, model for the gas industry and the four challenges the model faces if it is to increase output and encourage investment. One of the four challenges Morales’ model faces is to transform Yacimientos Petroliferos Fiscales Bolivianos (YPFB), the state oil company that controls the industry and its vast reserves, into a skilled company capable of delivering new projects. “If you have an experienced, well-run and capably managed company and you are having a tough time developing reserves anywhere in the world, how much harder is it for YPFB to do it without a structure or expertise,” said Mr. Vittor.
