The SECURITIES
AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION (SEC) was established
on October 26, 1936 by virtue of the Commonwealth
Act No. 83 or the Securities Act. Its establishment
was prompted by the need to safeguard public interest
in view of local stock market boom at that time.
Operations began on 11 Nov 1936 under the leadership
of Commissioner Ricardo Nepomuceno. Its major functions
included registration of securities, analysis of
every registered security, evaluation of the financial
condition and operations of applicants for security
issue, screening of applications for broker's or
dealer's license and supervision of stock and bond
brokers as well as the stock exchanges. The agency
was abolished during the Japanese occupation and
was replaced with the Philippine Executive Commission.
It was reactivated in 1947 With the restoration
of the Commonwealth Government. Due to the changes
in the business environment under Pres. Ferdinand
Marcos, the agency was reorganized on 29 Sept 1975
as a collegial body with 3 commissioners and was
given quasi-judicial powers under PD902-A.
In 1981, the Commission was expanded to include
two (2) additional commissioners and two (2) departments,
one for prosecution and enforcement and the other
for supervision and monitoring. Then on December
1, 2000, the SEC was reorganized as mandated by
R. A. 8799 also known as the Securities Regulation
Code.
