regulators

Regulators are organizations or government agencies that establish rules and standards to oversee industries and ensure safety, fairness, and compliance. They monitor companies' activities, enforce laws, and sometimes approve products or services before they reach consumers. The goal is to protect the public interest, prevent fraud, and maintain trust in markets. Examples include the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for medicines or the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) for financial markets. Regulators help balance innovation with safety, making sure businesses operate responsibly while serving consumers effectively.
