Market Regulation
Ideally, market regulation fosters efficient capital markets by permitting investors to make well-informed decisions and providing issuers with lower capital costs. The best regulatory systems promote transparency of price data and relevant issuer information. They are designed and enforced to maintain and enhance market credibility, openness, and investor confidence; and ensure a level playing field in trade execution for all market participants. Self regulation also encourages participant “buy-in” to the purpose and meaning of the regulation.
