From the supplier: The enactment of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 benefits accounting, securities and high technology firms wherein these firms are protected from class action suits. One of the law's provisions provides 'safe harbor' to a firm's investment statement forecast. High technology firms are being sued for their stocks' declining performances. The firms lobbied hard for the enactment of the law which was heavily opposed by consumer advocate groups. A turning point in the passage of the law was the support given by SEC Chairman Arthur Levitt.
