The significance of securities laws to our economy and livelihood continues unabated. As our economy evolves, so do our securities laws, often in unexpected ways. In addition to enforcing individual accountability, the SEC has dramatically increased its activities in what it calls the “crypto asset securities space,” as well as focusing its attention on “environmental, social, and governance” issues of importance to many investors.

This Second Edition, which offers twenty-five percent more content than the prior version, guides readers through the maze of changing securities laws, all while grounding them in the existing fundamentals. This Handbook also includes guidance on the registration of securities, civil and criminal liability, market manipulation issues, insider trading, and the intricacies of securities litigation, including class actions and securities arbitrations, as well as the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act.
