Investment Management Regulation, Third Edition

Investment companies have become an important part of the financial system. This case book is designed to familiarize students with the special laws governing investment companies: their creation, structure, corporate governance, operations (including the distribution of shares and the management of the portfolios), dissolution and, time permitting, taxation. In particular, the case book focuses on the Investment Company Act of 1940 and on the practice in this area before the Securities and Exchange Commission.
