Summary
In writing this book, my overall objective was to provide an overview of the regulation of derivatives while exploring critical legal and regulatory issues associated with the ever-increasing use of algo bots and related AI systems in these markets. While discussion and analysis of HFT firms, virtual currencies, and algorithmic market manipulation might be more fashionable topics at the moment, basic information about the existing laws and regulations governing the markets for derivatives is necessary context for understanding the impact that technological changes are having on the markets for futures and other derivatives. That is why I included chapters covering topics that described the overall regulatory framework for derivatives.
