Abstract

After a review of the traditional disclosure justifications, this paper examines the dangers that new technologies are creating in finance, such as flash crashes and the hack of the DAO. Whereas the dangers do require and have received regulatory responses, the environment that is forming does not appear to be one requiring a systematically different regulatory approach to transparency or disclosure.
