SEC Rulemaking

SEC rulemaking refers to the process by which the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission develops and implements regulations to oversee securities markets. This involves drafting rules to ensure transparency, protect investors, and maintain fair trading practices. The SEC gathers public input, conducts research, and analyzes the impact of proposed rules before finalizing them. Once enacted, these rules help regulate how companies disclose information, how financial markets operate, and how investors can trade securities safely. The goal is to promote confidence in the financial system and uphold the integrity of the markets.
