The Benefit Of Hindsight And The Promise Of Foresight: A Proposal For A Comprehensive Review Of Equity Market Structure - SEC Commissioner Michael S. Piwowar, U.S. Securities And Exchange Commission
Date 09/12/2013
Thank you Dan [Waters] for that kind introduction and the invitation to join you today. It is nice to be among such a large and distinguished group of market structure experts from both the private and public sectors. As a former academic researcher in the area of market microstructure, who has also spent time in the private sector and in government, this conference is a great setting for me to give my first public speech on equity market structure as an SEC Commissioner. Over the next several months, I plan to speak about each of the three parts of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission’s (SEC’s) core mission – protecting investors; maintaining fair, orderly, and efficient markets; and promoting capital formation. Today’s speech covers the second part of our mission – maintaining fair, orderly, and efficient markets – and in it I would like to share with you my views on the need for a comprehensive review of equity market structure. It is also fitting for me to be delivering a speech in a venue called “The Brewery” since my last name – “Piwowar” – literally means “Brewer” in Polish.
