An Overview of the Work of the IOSCO Technical Committee 2007

Since its creation in 1983, IOSCO has rapidly developed into the most important standard setter in the field of securities regulations. In order to continue to be able to publish timely and clear guidelines, recommendations and standards for the regulatory community and the securities industry, the Technical Committee of IOSCO is requesting comments on its work program (http://www.iosco.org/library/pubdocs/pdf/IOSCOPD239.pdf) for the immediate years.

In this consultation report an overview is given of the committee’s current and planned work. The Technical Committee invites interested parties to provide input on:

  • Opportunities to promote just, efficient and sound markets;
  • Market risks which might warrant regulatory intervention;
  • Regulatory failures (for example instances where regulation is not effective or where sectoral or national regulations are inconsistent or incomplete);
  • IOSCO’s overall programme of activities;
  • Specific on-going initiatives of IOSCO.

Comments on this consultation paper will assist IOSCO in evaluating its priorities and in considering if it needs to undertake work on certain issues.
