Securities market oversight involves the monitoring and regulation of financial markets to ensure fairness, transparency, and stability. This function is typically performed by government agencies and self-regulatory organizations, which establish rules for trading, disclosure, and investor protection. Their responsibilities include preventing market manipulation, insider trading, and fraudulent activities across various asset classes. Effective oversight is essential for maintaining public confidence and efficient capital allocation within the financial system.

Global regulatory convergence remains challenged by new business models and fragmented cross-border enforcement, necessitating immediate internal compliance framework audits.
