问题如下:
The development of financial system results from the joint effect of the Financial Accounting Standards Board and the US Securities and Exchange Commission. The FASB is best classified as a:
选项: Government Agency.
Independent Regulator.
C.Outside Body.
解释:
C is correct.
考点:Classification of Regulations and Regulators 监管机构的分类,要求同学们记住几个子分类的典型机构代表。
解析:Government Agency 政府特定的机构比如SEC。
Independent Regulator政府授予管辖权的机构,但并非由政府资助,拥有制定、实施条令权力并拥有监管权。例如SRO下的FINRA,美国金融业监管局。Non-SRO下的PCAOB,上市公司审计监督委员会。
Outside Body顾名思义,外部机构,和政府没什么关联,没有监管权,但是他们制定的一些规则在相关行业广为遵守,典型的如评级机构以及2个SB:FASB和IASB。
FINRA是属于independent agency还是self-regulatory?
