Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Protecting the public interest is at the core of federal securities laws. To protect the public interest is the mission of the Securities and Exchange Commission and its raison d'être. At least, that is what the public is encouraged to believe.Protecting the public interest in Federal securities laws has been blindly accepted without questioning basic assumption that the purpose of securities laws is to protect the public interest. However, a recent analysis of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 (“'34 Act”) has shown that protecting the public interest in the '34 Act is a myth and that it is not the public interest, or even investors' interests, that the '34 Act was primarily intended to protect, but the market interest.Contrary to popular belief protecting investors' interests is not the primary purpose of the securities laws, and protecting investors' interests is merely derivative of the primary purpose -- protecting the market interest -- and protecting the public interest is non-existent. As the Supreme Court has recently commented, “The magnitude of the federal interest in protecting the integrity and efficiency of the national securities market cannot be overstated.”Recognizing the true purpose of federal securities laws and the reasons for creating the Securities and Exchange Commission (“Commission” or “SEC”) provides a greater understanding of the policy underlying the decisions (including rule-making and enforcement actions) of the SEC. It changes the nature of discourse concerning the best type of regulatory regime.
Book Synopsis Regulation and Public Interests by : Steven P. Croley
Download or read book Regulation and Public Interests written by Steven P. Croley and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2009-01-10 with total page 393 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Not since the 1960s have U.S. politicians, Republican or Democrat, campaigned on platforms defending big government, much less the use of regulation to help solve social ills. And since the late 1970s, "deregulation" has become perhaps the most ubiquitous political catchword of all. This book takes on the critics of government regulation. Providing the first major alternative to conventional arguments grounded in public choice theory, it demonstrates that regulatory government can, and on important occasions does, advance general interests. Unlike previous accounts, Regulation and Public Interests takes agencies' decision-making rules rather than legislative incentives as a central determinant of regulatory outcomes. Drawing from both political science and law, Steven Croley argues that such rules, together with agencies' larger decision-making environments, enhance agency autonomy. Agency personnel inclined to undertake regulatory initiatives that generate large but diffuse benefits (while imposing smaller but more concentrated costs) can use decision-making rules to develop socially beneficial regulations even over the objections of Congress and influential interest groups. This book thus provides a qualified defense of regulatory government. Its illustrative case studies include the development of tobacco rulemaking by the Food and Drug Administration, ozone and particulate matter rules by the Environmental Protection Agency, the Forest Service's "roadless" policy for national forests, and regulatory initiatives by the Securities and Exchange Commission and the Federal Trade Commission.
Book Synopsis Reinventing a Security by : Eric A. Chiappinelli

Book excerpt: The traditional test for evaluating whether a particular investment vehicle is covered under the securities law is in dire need of reform. Under the traditional test, coverage turns entirely on the private needs of private investors rather than on the public needs of the national securities markets. Considerations of the American capital formation and secondary trading markets or those markets' ability to compete in foreign markets remain untouched. The introduction of more sophisticated investment vehicles provides an opportunity to amend the traditional analysis to better address the broader public interest. Considerations of the national markets can be integrated harmoniously into the traditional analysis for the purposes of making securities coverage determinations. Adding a public interest component to the test would provide a useful supplement to the traditional approach. This article analyzes the current approach; moving through a discussion of how the Supreme Court determines what is and what is not a security before delving into the deficiencies of the current approach. An expanded calculus that includes a public interest test is needed so that capital formation, secondary trading markets, and issues of market regulation are explicitly considered. A public interest test is entirely consonant with the traditional touchstones of congressional intention and prior case law. On multiple occasions Congress has acted by amendment to bring a portion of the financial markets under greater regulation in order to protect the public interest. This article illustrates that in the absence of the public interest calculus the traditional test is insufficient. It is therefore important that the courts consider the larger, national implications of securities coverage through the application of a public interest test.

Book Synopsis Irreconcilable Differences? The FASB's Conceptual Framework and the Public Interest by : Wm. Dennis Huber
Download or read book Irreconcilable Differences? The FASB's Conceptual Framework and the Public Interest written by Wm. Dennis Huber and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 16 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It has been shown that protecting and serving the public interest in public accounting is a myth. It has also recently been demonstrated that protecting and serving the public interest by the Securities and Exchange Commission is not the primary, or even secondary, mission of the SEC. Finally, it has been proven that is not the mission of the FASB to serve the public interest. Recently, the FASB has revised its “Conceptual Framework.” The FASB's Conceptual Framework is “intended to serve the public interest by providing structure and direction to financial accounting and reporting to facilitate the provision of unbiased financial and related information [which] helps capital and other markets to function efficiently in allocating scarce resources in the economy and society” (emphasis added) However, since it is not the mission of either the FAF (Financial Accounting Foundation, the parent of the FASB), or the FASB to serve the public interest, whether the FASB's Conceptual Framework can serve the public interest as intended, or whether the Conceptual Framework is incompatible with the public interest is questionable.This paper explores the question of whether the Conceptual Framework is compatible with the public interest. The question is important to consider because if the Conceptual Framework cannot serve the public interest as intended, then it may be necessary to revise the Conceptual Framework in order to achieve its intended purpose of serving the public interest.This is the working paper version.
Book Synopsis Going Public: My Adventures Inside the SEC and How to Prevent the Next Devastating Crisis by : Norm Champ
Download or read book Going Public: My Adventures Inside the SEC and How to Prevent the Next Devastating Crisis written by Norm Champ and published by McGraw Hill Professional. This book was released on 2017-03-17 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An insider’s look at the SEC and the changes needed to strengthen the U.S. financial system In 2008, Americans were reeling from the devastating financial crisis that caused the Great Recession. There were searing questions about how the crisis was allowed to happen and calls for immediate reform from Capital Hill, the news media, and the general public. Multiple scandals sent real fear through the investing community and brought unprecedented heat on the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). There was little doubt that the SEC had to fix rules that permitted bad behavior, shake off decades of complacency and enforce existing laws. Wall Street lawyer Norm Champ spent nearly 20 years dealing with the SEC on behalf of his clients and as an industry representative working to educate the agency about hedge funds. Believing he could help reform the deeply-flawed agency, Champ left his career in the private sector and joined the SEC. As Director of the Division of Investment Management, he became a key player in stabilizing trillions of dollars of investor capital while reenergizing the SEC’s culture and management. In Going Public, Champ presents a rare, insider’s look at how the SEC operates and explains exactly how the agency impacts the overall economic health of the country. He examines the inner workings of hedge funds, economic policy and politics, investing, and inefficient and frustrating federal agencies. Engrossing and important, this book offers critical recommendations for policy changes that will create healthy, free-functioning markets and help Americans better prepare for the inevitable next crisis.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Worth a read for anyone who cares about making change happen.”—Barack Obama A powerful new blueprint for how governments and nonprofits can harness the power of digital technology to help solve the most serious problems of the twenty-first century As the speed and complexity of the world increases, governments and nonprofit organizations need new ways to effectively tackle the critical challenges of our time—from pandemics and global warming to social media warfare. In Power to the Public, Tara Dawson McGuinness and Hana Schank describe a revolutionary new approach—public interest technology—that has the potential to transform the way governments and nonprofits around the world solve problems. Through inspiring stories about successful projects ranging from a texting service for teenagers in crisis to a streamlined foster care system, the authors show how public interest technology can make the delivery of services to the public more effective and efficient. At its heart, public interest technology means putting users at the center of the policymaking process, using data and metrics in a smart way, and running small experiments and pilot programs before scaling up. And while this approach may well involve the innovative use of digital technology, technology alone is no panacea—and some of the best solutions may even be decidedly low-tech. Clear-eyed yet profoundly optimistic, Power to the Public presents a powerful blueprint for how government and nonprofits can help solve society’s most serious problems.
