Capital Market Regulation

The internationalization and globalization of capital markets greatly complicates the tasks of national financial regulators. It is becoming increasingly difficult, if not impossible, to regulate the activities of banking and securities firms and the broad range of transactions in which they engage on a national level. In this article I explore the process of international regulatory harmonization in capital markets, focusing especially on the mechanisms (political pressure, market pressure, and institutional arrangements) that facilitate this process. I argue that the United States and the United Kingdom are dominant players in the capital market and that the factors most relevant for understanding harmonization processes are (1) whether other jurisdictions have incentives to emulate the regulatory innovations of the dominant financial centers, and (2) whether the dominant centers experience negative externalities in the process. These two factors shed considerable light on whether harmonization will be spurred primarily by market forces or by politics; they also suggest the likely role of international institutions in the process of regulatory harmonization. The argument is illustrated using four issue areas: capital adequacy requirements for banks, anti-money laundering rules, accounting standards, and information sharing among securities regulators.

<p><strong>Abstrak</strong><strong></strong></p><p> </p><p>Keberadaan pasar modal di Indonesia dibutuhkan mengingat peranannya yang penting untuk menyokong kondisi perekonomian negara. Namun pasar modal sebagai lembaga yang berasal dari sistem ekonomi liberal-kapitalistik tidak serta merta dapat dengan mudah diadopsi dan diatur tanpa disesuaikan dengan filosofi bangsa Indonesia. Melalui tulisan ini, Penulis hendak menganalisis kesesuaian tujuan pengaturan dan pengembangan pasar modal di Indonesia dengan konsep Negara Kesejahteraan Indonesia pasca Amandemen Undang-Undang Dasar Negara Republik Indonesia Tahun 1945. Analisis tulisan ini menyimpulkan bahwa tujuan pengembangan pasar modal Indonesia adalah mewujudkan masyarakat yang adil dan makmur, namun tujuan pengaturan pasar modal itu sendiri belum sesuai dengan konsep negara kesejahteraan Indonesia serta belum memenuhi harapan konstitusional bangsa ini.</p><p><strong> </strong></p><p><em><strong>Abs</strong><strong>tract</strong></em><strong></strong></p><p>In Indonesia the existence of capital market is needed considering the important role to support the country's economy. But the capital market as an institution derived from the liberal-capitalistic economic system can not necessarily be adopted and arranged without adjustment to the philosophy of the Indonesian nation. Through this article, the author analyzes the suitability of regulation and development of capital markets in Indonesia with the concept of Indonesian welfare state after the amendment to the Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia of 1945. The analysis of this paper draws a conclusion that the purpose of the Indonesian capital market development is to realize a just and prosperous society, but the goal of the capital market regulation itself is not in accordance with the concept of Indonesia as well as the concept of welfare state and thus has not met expectations of the nation's constitutional expectations.</p><p> </p>

The market participants and the regulators are increasingly adopting international standards in order to make the capital markets in sync with those of developed markets. New products are being introduced and new business lines are being established. The Capital Markets Authority (Regulator) is constantly reviewing existing regulations and recommending changes to regulate the market properly. Business lines and activities are being harmonized by market participants to provide a one stop solution in order to meet the financial and securities services needs of the investors. The convergence of business lines and activities of market intermediaries gives rise to the diversity of a firm’s business operations to meet multiplicity of regulations that its activities are subject to.

A growing body of scholarly literature has attempted to measure and value unpaid care work in various countries, but perhaps only the government statistical agencies in the United States and the United Kingdom have seriously undertaken periodic and systematic measures of the time spent on unpaid work at the national level, and partially incorporated those values into their gross domestic product(GDP). One country that has been ahead of its time on aspects of societal welfare measurement is Bhutan, which produces the Gross National Happiness (GNH) Index. However, until the first GNH Survey, in 2008, Bhutan did not have any sense of the size and distribution of unpaid work, despite its strong societal norms about the value of volunteering and community work. This paper is the first to estimate the value of unpaid care work in Bhutan. It shows the pros and cons of various approaches and their equivalent measures of unpaid care work as a share of GDP. As with similar studies on the topic, this paper also finds that women spend more than twice as much time as men performing unpaid care work, regardless of their income, age, residency, or number of people in the household. The paper also provides recommendations for improving the measurement of unpaid care work in Bhutan.

The present study focuses on the development of one of the key institutions of the market economy – namely, the securities market in terms of its role in promoting competitive conditions in the financial services sector.

Particularly, the research outlines the background to capital market formation and development in CIS countries through a brief history of the CIS; considers the necessity of capital market and its regulation in CIS countries; reviews the institutional and legal framework of capital market regulation, and analyzes certain problems of capital market development.
