Securities Attorneys
Securities law exists because of unique informational
needs of investors. Securities are not inherently valuable; their worth
comes only from the claims they entitle their owner to make upon the assets
and earnings of the issuer, or the voting power that accompanies such
claims. The value of securities depends on the issuers financial condition,
products and markets, management, and competitive and regulatory climate.
Securities laws attempt to ensure that investors have accurate information
of the type of interest they are purchasing and its value.
The Securities exist in form of notes, stocks, treasury stocks, bonds,
certificates of interest or participation in profit sharing agreements,
collateral trust certificates, pre-organization certificates or subscriptions,
transferable shares, investment contracts, voting trust certificates,
certificates of deposit for a security, and a fractional undivided interest
in gas, oil, or other mineral rights. Certain types of notes, such as
a note secured by a home mortgage or a note secured by accounts receivable
or other business assets are not securities.
