Regulation of Securities, Markets, and Transactions A Guide to the New Environment
Securities laws, securities regulations, and the rules of self-regulatory organizations are changed often. Some of these changes are driven by the normal course of competition and innovation between and within markets, by advances in the technologies that support the operations of markets, or by the global integration of markets. Other changes, such as those that followed the banking turmoil of 2007?2008, are a response to the sudden release of pressures accumulated over a period of years.
Regulation of Securities, Markets, and Transactions: A Guide to the New Environment is essential reading for professionals in the banking, insurance, or securities industries; those employed in companies that have issued publicly owned securities; and those employed by a government agency that regulates these industries. With in-depth discussion of the Financial Regulation Act of 2010, this timely resource places critical guidance of the latest regulations for this industry at your fingertips.

- Securities and the public interest
