Securities and Exchange Commission federal obligations

The Securities and Exchange Commission shows $3,229,250,853.50 in USAspending.gov obligations through fiscal year 2026. Those dollars sit on 1,390 awards tagged to awarding-agency CGAC 050. The profile is a thin independent-regulator file: few rows, a mean in the low millions, and a dollar book far below cabinet departments. The hub reports the award extract; it does not list enforcement actions or score filings.

Key figures

  • SEC (CGAC 050) shows $3,229,250,853.50 in USAspending obligations through FY 2026.
  • Award volume is 1,390 records—a thin regulator file.
  • The total is an award-file obligation sum, not penalties or filing fees.
  • Enforcement caseloads are not in this packet.

$3.23 billion on 1,390 SEC awards

The precise total is $3,229,250,853.50. Divided by 1,390 awards, the implied mean is about $2.32 million per award. IT, facilities, and other support contracts can occupy a large share of a 1,390-row file. This packet does not split those rows by office, so examination, enforcement, or EDGAR-operations shares are not stated here.

Fiscal year 2026 is the latest year. Multi-year contracts can remain open, so $3,229,250,853.50 is not a single year’s enacted SEC appropriation. USAspending.gov is the source.

That mix is the research takeaway from the two packet facts together. 1,390 awards at a mean near $2.32 million describe a thin regulator file of support contracts, not enforcement cases. A later extract can change both the dollar total and the award count as multi-year IT and facilities vehicles remain open inside FY 2026.

CGAC 050 as the awarding-agency key

SpendingVault keys the SEC to /agencies/050/. CGAC 050 is the USAspending awarding-agency identifier. The $3,229,250,853.50 total and 1,390 award count roll up rows carrying that code. The award count is not a count of registrants, filings, or enforcement cases.

Award obligations versus disgorgement and fees

Fair-fund distributions, penalties, and filing-fee collections follow other ledgers. This hub cites $3,229,250,853.50 in USAspending obligations through FY 2026 on 1,390 awards. Those collections and distributions are not in the packet. Outlays are omitted.

Researchers sometimes treat an agency obligation total as cash already paid. For Securities and Exchange Commission, that reading is wrong. Filing-fee collections, fair-fund distributions, penalties, registrant counts, or examination caseloads belong in other publications. The USAspending figure on this hub remains an obligation sum through FY 2026. Multi-year IT and facilities vehicles remain open inside FY 2026.

State geography for SEC awards

With 1,390 awards, headquarters and regional-office coding can dominate state cells. The geography view is a coding table for the $3,229,250,853.50 book through FY 2026, not a map of listed companies.

Place-of-performance is a coding field, not a complete economic-impact model. On this agency, headquarters and regional-office coding can dominate cells on a 1,390-row file. Read the state table after the agency hub, not instead of it. Use CGAC 050 for the award rollup; do not treat it as a docket list.

SEC on the all-agencies list

Compare $3,229,250,853.50 and 1,390 awards only with other obligation totals from this extract. The hub does not offer investment advice and does not name respondents.

The all-agencies list is useful only inside this extract’s obligation definition and FY 2026 cap. 1,390 awards at a mean near $2.32 million describe a thin regulator file of support contracts, not enforcement cases. Ranking on dollars alone hides that mix. Use CGAC 050 for the award rollup; do not treat it as a docket list.

SEC’s award file without enforcement metrics

The packet facts are $3,229,250,853.50, 1,390 awards, CGAC 050, and FY 2026. Penalty and fee ledgers are other publications. This page does not cite them. Office splits are omitted for the same reason. A later USAspending extract can revise both the dollar total and the 1,390 count as new actions and modifications post against CGAC 050. Until that refresh, the documented book is 3229250853.5 in obligations. That figure is not a performance score, not an enacted one-year appropriation, and not a recommendation to apply for funds. It is the award-file rollup this packet carries through FY 2026.

The 1,390 count is not a count of filings or respondents. Rank the SEC only against other obligation totals from this extract. The state table is award coding, not a map of listed companies. CGAC 050 is the awarding-agency identifier on every row in this rollup, and the overlay path stays /agencies/050/. The award population is 1,390 records. Those rows still sum to the same obligation total through fiscal year 2026. Readers who need place-of-performance should open the state table from that hub; readers who need peer context should open the all-agencies list. Neither view converts obligations into outlays.
