On five separate occasions starting in 2000, Mr. Markopolos made submissions to the Securities & Exchange Commission (SEC) about Mr. Madoff. His most detailed report, in 2005, outlined 30 reasons to suspect Mr. Madoff of being a fraud. The SECs failure to follow up properly was horribly costly. The frustration of the outsider could not be better expressed. -The EconomistFor additional information and resources, visit noonewouldlisten From the Back Cover NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLERHow to improve financial regulation and reduce the federal budget deficit, all in one fell swoop?
