The Statutory Pay-As-You-Go Act of 2010 establishes budget-reporting and enforcement procedures for legislation affecting direct spending or
revenues. The net changes in outlays and revenues that are subject to those procedures are shown here.

Under H.R. 4344, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) would have up to 14 years after an alleged violation in which to seek a
disgorgement penalty (the repayment of ill-gotten gains to investors harmed by a securities law violator). The limit under current law is 5 years.
CBO estimates that the bill would increase the number of such penalties, and that a portion of the funds collected would be remitted to the
Treasury and recorded in the budget as revenues. CBO also anticipates that a small percentage of the new actions would stem from information
provided by whistleblowers who would be eligible for payments from the SEC. Those payments would be recorded in the budget as additional
direct spending.
