Market Making and the Changing Structure of the Securities Industry 

On May 18-19, 1978, the Salomon Center for the Study of Financial Institutions, Graduate School of Business, New York University held a conference: "The Deregulation of the Banking and Securities Industries." Representatives from regulated firms and institutions, the government and academia exchanged ideas on emerging trends. This book is a compilation of the papers presented on the three major areas of regulation-price regulation, entry regulation, and safety regulation. While deregulation was in the air, it was far from ubiquitous. These papers present a variety of viewpoints and penetrating analyses of the complexities of regulation and the difficulties of effecting deregulation.
