Answer:

TRUE

Step-by-step explanation:

The United States of America investigated security trading after the stock market crash of 1929. The securities act of 1933 was enacted in the process and the security exchange act of 1934 was passed by the congress a year later.

The security exchange act led to the creation of Securities and Exchange Commission. The rules and regulations are established to promote disclosure and sharing of market-related information, fair dealing, and protection against fraud.
