Answered by admin @



The role of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) is to provide transparency in the financial performance of US companies.


Further Explanation:

The function of SEC are maintaining fair and orderly security market. It also facilitates capital formation. It was formed in 1934 as the federal regulator of the security market. It promotes full public disclosure. It also protects investors against fraudulent and manipulative practices in the market. It monitors corporate takeover action. It approves the registration statements for book runners. Issues of securities that are offered in interstate commerce must be registered with SEC. Capitalism and communism are two different political and economic ideologies. They never go together. One major difference is about the means of production. In communism, the community owns the means of production. The profit is shared equally among all the people in communism. But in capitalism profit belongs to the private owners only. Private party controls the resources in the capitalism. In the communism, it is the society which controls the means of production. Capitalism supports some level of government and influences the economy. Capitalism is the best way to distribute the resources but the government must be present to protect the property rights. The macroeconomics forces in the business cycle require government intervention to smooth the functioning of the market. They support fiscal and monetary policy. Under socialism, the government owns the means of production and it directly affects the economic activity towards the political goals.
