Anita Krug, dean and professor of law at Chicago-Kent College of Law, joins the Business Scholarship Podcast to discuss her article Temporary Securities Regulation. Krug presents case studies of SEC temporary rulemaking in times of crisis, including those made in the aftermath of the 9-11 attacks and at the outset of the COVID-19 pandemic. Drawing on these case studies, she proposes that temporary rulemaking could encourage salutary regulatory experimentation. She cautions, however, that crisis rulemaking risks curtailing investor protections just when they are needed most.
This episode is hosted by Andrew Jennings, a teaching fellow and lecturer in law at Stanford Law School.
