Tiivistelmä: | In this paper, it is argued both theoretically and empirically that sometimes no securities (hereafter as: sects.) law may be better than a good sects. law without enforcement. The sufficient conditions (here as: suff-cnds.) are formalized, and a specific sects. law, that is, the law prohibiting insider trading, is shown to be possibly satisfying the suff-cnds. This prediction is taken to the data. The cost of equity is found to be actually rising when some countries enact an insider trading law without enforcing it. |
