The Securities Exchange Commission (SEC) was created in response to the Stock Market crash of 1929 and the Great Depression that followed. Its primary purpose is to protect investors, maintain fair and efficient markets, and facilitate capital formation. The SEC enforces federal securities laws, regulates the securities industry, and ensures that companies provide transparent and accurate information to the public, thereby promoting trust and integrity in the financial system.
