A federal law that sets rules for trading securities on public exchanges, requiring companies and market participants to register, disclose regular financial information, and follow standards that promote honest, orderly markets. For investors, it matters because it creates transparency and legal protections—like stopping insider trading and ensuring timely company disclosures—so you can evaluate risks and rely on consistent rules much as players rely on a referee to keep a game fair.
