SEC Biography:  Chair Mary Jo White

U.S. regulators on Thursday barred a New York firm and four of its employees from auditing public companies, saying they failed to audit properly three Chinese companies traded in the U.S.

The sanctions against Sherb & Co. and the four employees represent the Securities and Exchange Commission’s latest action against so-called gatekeepers: auditors, advisers, financiers and other professionals who work with Chinese companies and have helped them gain access to U.S. markets.
