Notes: "In October 2011 the Minister of the Finance presented in parliament the Securities and Exchange Commission of Pakistan (Regulation and enforcement) Bill 2011. As stated the purpose of this Bill is to "provide for the powers and functions of the Securities and Exchange Commission of Pakistan established under the SECP Act 1997". To better understand the implications of the proposed Bill, the Research Unit at the Pakistan Business Council (PBC) has prepared a comparison of the various clauses in the proposed Bill with the existing provisions in the SECP ACT. The purpose behind doing this is to build consensus for better engaging with the parliamentarians and the Government of Pakistan. This comparison is being shared among the key stakeholders with a request for their comments/suggestions which can be emailed to Samir S. Amir-- Director Research, PBC at samir@pbc.org.pk"
