A Look Back In Time: Analyzing The Success And Value Of The 2014 Amendments To Rule 2a-7 And Reporting On Form N-Cr In Light Of The March 2020 Market Events, Jocelyn Near
Catholic University Law Review
Money market funds have frequently been a target of regulation by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Perhaps the most expansive regulation came as a response to the 2008 financial crisis, in which the Reserve Primary Fund “broke the buck.” The SEC’s misguided 2014 reforms exacerbated the inherent risks of money market funds, including the risk of runs and first mover advantage, particularly with the implementation of Form N-CR.

It makes the majority of the laws; it engages in enforcement actions; it reacts to crises; and it, or sometimes even its individual commissioners, intervene publicly in policy debates.

FIU Law Review
This article focuses a recurring theme – speculation in the financial markets. The 2010-2020 decade set the stage for a new round of speculative activity starting in 2021. In the article that follows I reflect on a new wave of speculation and three current examples of speculative activity. The article concludes that regulators should be cautious about over-regulation of SPACs and gamified trading. The article also supports the regulation of digital assets (crypto currencies and NFTs) as securities.
