SEC Hits Illinois With Securities Fraud Charges

SPRINGFIELD-Illinois broke federal securities laws in misstating the true health of the state's depleted pension funds when going out onto the bond market between 2005 and early 2009, the Securities and Exchange Commission announced Monday.

The finding of securities fraud doesn't subject the state to any fines or penalties but amounts to a warning to potential investors about the state's past financial misdeeds.

The action focuses mostly on misstatements made during impeached ex-Gov. Rod Blagojevich's administration, though Gov. Pat Quinn's administration wasn't spared entirely in the federal order.
