The main purpose of independent agencies is to regulate businesses and administer governmental programs. Additionally, they have legislative, executive and judicial powers and can influence the wishes of the president, congress and the public. Independent agencies can also have greater freedom and less presidential control than most other governmental agencies. Regulatory agencies represent a compromise between government ownership of industry and all powerful private corporations. Independent agencies are created by congress and sometimes work counter to the president's wishes.
