The Use Of Audited Self-Regulation As A Regulatory Technique, Douglas C. Michael Apr 1995

The Use Of Audited Self-Regulation As A Regulatory Technique, Douglas C. Michael

If government regulation of an industry or problem is considered necessary, how can that responsibility then be returned to those from whom it was taken?

Pursuant to that scheme, the Securities and Exchange Commission was given ultimate authority to enforce the newly enacted securities laws against market participants.

Congress required these self-regulatory organizations as a condition for their continued operation to enforce, among other things, compliance by their members with the provisions of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. The SROs were also given …
