Securities Regulations
Securities regulation is about the laws and administrative rules that govern publicly traded companies and any transaction involving a security. When researching any publicly traded company, it is important to review the company’s public filings. In some situations, shareholders bring lawsuits against the company or its executives or board. These cases can be researched using the company’s public filings, reading opinions from the case, or the news. Insider trading is a particularly interesting issue in securities regulation, and it can be researched through the SEC website, legal opinions, and many news publications.
