New technology is revolutionizing the nature and threatening the existence of traditional stock and future exchanges. This book analyses how they are responding to developments in automation, what strategies they should adopt to survive and prosper in a competitive environment, and whether their actions both are, and should be, a matter of public concern. The development, operation, management, and governance of stock and futures exchanges is examined. Relevant law and regulation is interpreted and evaluated. Finally, some policy recommendations are presented. The book applies knowledge, experience, and analytical techniques from the fields of business, economics, law, and regulation.
