Cevap
The SEC holds ultimate regulatory oversight over self-regulatory organizations and must review and approve proposed SRO rule changes before they take effect.
Under federal securities laws, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) maintains ultimate regulatory oversight over all self-regulatory organizations (SROs), including FINRA and stock exchanges. When an SRO proposes a new rule or modification, it must file the proposal with the SEC. The SEC reviews the proposed rule to ensure consistency with federal laws and must approve it before it becomes effective.
