What is Government Market Regulation?
Government regulation is a form of control exercised by Governments over private markets. Governments generally seek to regulate private markets through a combination of statutes, court interpretations, and administrative agency regulations.
The objective of these regulations is to increase confidence in the market and ensure a semblance of equity or fairness in the market procedures.
