Abstract
The necessity and effectiveness of mandatory disclosure, and the ongoing contest
between public and private means of enforcing such disclosure, is helpful to bear in
mind when analysing the many purported purposes of securities regulation. While all
agree that such regulation creates a system of mandatory disclosure, the purpose and
goals of such disclosure remain disputed.
