Global Securities Regulators and Authorities

Global Securities Regulators and Authorities is the regulation landing page for ASIC, FCA, SEBI, securities regulators, and national market authorities outside the U.S. context. It keeps related terms in one branch so readers can move from a broad compliance question to the article that owns the regulatory evidence.

Use this page when a national securities authority changes market oversight, issuer regulation, conduct supervision, or investor protection. Use the parent Securities and Derivatives Regulators page when you need the broader regulation map. For an individual decision, confirm the rule source, jurisdiction, covered party, effective date, filing or record, and compliance consequence before relying on the term.

Use the table below to move from this landing page into the term page that best matches the regulatory evidence.

Key Terms in This Branch

Example in Use

A securities regulator may oversee issuer disclosure and market conduct, while a separate prudential regulator may supervise bank safety.

What to Check

• Regulator name, jurisdiction, statutory mandate, covered markets, supervised firms, and enforcement powers.
• Relevant rule, filing, license, consultation, enforcement action, or investor-protection program.
• Whether the authority supervises securities issuance, intermediaries, markets, funds, or conduct.
• Effect on market access, disclosure, trading rules, firm authorization, and compliance obligations.

Common Mistakes

• Treating regulator mandates as identical across countries.
• Ignoring whether a regulator has prudential, conduct, issuer, or market-infrastructure powers.
• Using regulator summaries as legal advice for cross-border activity.

Global Securities Regulators content is educational and does not provide personalized legal, tax, accounting, compliance, regulatory, investment, or securities advice.
