Markets operate most successfully when all participants have a level playing field.

I am retail investor with the goal to secure retirement but also to provide speculative short-term income. The due diligence that I conduct is incomparable to the understanding institutional players have about other market participants. Implementing SR-NSCC-2021 will help investors of any size understand more about the market and its participants and provide for a more level playing field.
