Rule

A private right of action exists under § 14(a) of the Exchange Act for violations of SEC proxy rules; effective enforcement of the securities laws requires a private remedy.

Significance

Recognized an implied private right of action under § 14(a); relied on broadly to imply rights under the securities laws before the Court narrowed that approach.
