Today, Activision Blizzard provided an update on recent initiatives to achieve its goal of “ensuring a workplace that is inspiring, equitable, and respectful to all,” and has commented on the recent subpoena received by the SEC.
Earlier today, it was reported the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has launched an investigation into Activision Blizzard. The agency subpoenaed the publisher and Kotick, for records related to employment, separation agreements, and communications between senior executives.
The government body is requesting records that go back to 2019 where it hopes to review communications between Activision Blizzard executives regarding the various complaints of sexual harassment and discrimination.
