One example of this is the inflation of certain fees to conceal losses.  Also, examiners found that some expenses, such as property rent and salaries, were inappropriately  charged to funds instead of to the fund manager. <\/p>\n<div class=\"read_more_link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.investorlawyers.com\/blog\/sec-intends-to-examine-25-of-i\/\"  title=\"Continue Reading SEC Intends to Examine 25% of Investment Advisers That Had To Register, Per Dodd-Frank Act, by End of 2014\" class=\"more-link\">Continue Reading \u203a<\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>According to SEC Office of Compliance Inspections and Examinations Director Carlo di Florio, by December 31, 2014, the Commission plans to have examined 25% of the investment advisers that had to register with it after the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 issued its mandate.
