What are the regulatory goals of security laws?

The regulatory goals or purpose of the securities laws include:

preventing manipulation of the securities market;

full disclosure of material information to stakeholders;

preventing fraud; and

leveling the playing field between insiders of a company and investors.

Each of these regulatory goals are not independent. Fairness and the prevention of deceit underline each objective.

Discussion: How do you feel about these securities law objectives? Are there any additional objectives that should be achieved under the securities laws?
