Securities law evolution refers to the ongoing changes and adaptations in legal frameworks governing financial instruments. This continuous development responds to new technologies, market practices, and investor protection needs, influencing how assets are classified, offered, and traded. It involves legislative updates, judicial rulings, and guidance from regulatory bodies. The evolution aims to maintain fair, orderly, and efficient markets while addressing emerging risks.
