In his presentation, Antar provided insight into the criminal mind, motivation, manipulations, and techniques of a felon convicted of fraud. He demonstrated how vulnerable our financial markets remain and examined various strategies for combating securities fraud.

“I take full and complete responsibility for my actions and apologize to all the victims of my crimes... However, my apologies, acceptance of responsibility, and the punishment imposed upon me by the court is not enough. I believe that acceptance of one's personal responsibility for past actions must be accompanied by corrective action and not include exploitation for personal gain. I believe that former criminals like me must do more than just express regret for our crimes and pay whatever punishment society imposes upon us. I believe that it is our obligation and responsibility to educate society, so that society can avoid future perils caused by new generations of criminals. I also believe that any person's true test of character comes from overcoming past misdeeds and wrongdoing and trying to do something positive out of it without any personal gain or recognition.”
