The Limited Public Offer In German And U.S. Securities Law: A Comparative Analysis Of Prospectus Act Section 2(2) And Rule 505 Of Regulation D, David B. Guenther
Michigan Journal of International Law
This Note examines the "limited circle of persons" exception in section 2(2) of the Prospectus Act in comparison to similar provisions of U.S. federal securities law, particularly Section 3(b) of the Securities Act of 1933 (the "Securities Act") and Rule 505 of Regulation D ("Rule 505").

Survey Of National Legislation Regulating Insider Trading, Mary J. Houle
Survey Of National Legislation Regulating Insider Trading, Mary J. Houle
Michigan Journal of International Law

The United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) now appears to have wide-spread public support for its hard-line approach toward insider trading practices.

The prevailing attitude is that confidence in the fair operation of the securities markets must not be undermined by insiders who deprive those …
