Template:Infobox Midpage Need Sponsor
SLK has long been known as a leading specialist on the New York Stock Exchange. In 2004 SLK and four other specialist firms paid $240 million to settle with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), which accused them of "front-running," artificially inflating the price of shares they held as a way to skim additional profits.
