Former U.S. Senator says SEC has closed probe concerning him without action -statement


- Former U.S. Senator Richard Burr said in a statement on Friday that the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission informed him this week it has concluded investigation concerning him with action.

U.S. authorities investigated Burr, a North Carolina lawmaker who did seek reelection last year, for his stock trades before the downturn caused by the coronavirus pandemic.
