Features: Chinese students can use this book to get an overview of U.S. securities regulations, rules issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission, and court rulings that interpret the two different types of regulations—legislative and regulative. At the same time, as a unique feature of this textbook among all similar textbooks in the U.S., the author has compiled some cases selected from real court proceedings. From these cases, readers can learn about the legal issues faced by securities professionals. Moreover, through the author's analysis and explanations, readers can understand how these issues are resolved under current law. This Q&A format not only encourages students to test their own learning but also deepens their understanding of the issues. Many foreign readers of this book believe it provides a good introductory overview for those unfamiliar with U.S. law. Additionally, this book is also used as a textbook by many business schools in the U.S. to help students who have not studied law in their securities law studies.
