On the surface, the subject may not seem terribly interesting, but the importance of providing historical materials relating to the growth and development of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) is tremendously important. Since 1999, the Securities and Exchange Commission Historical Society has been collecting materials in this area, and for the past several years it have included many of these materials on this website. On the site, visitors can view a timeline of the SEC's history, peruse (and listen) to a number of oral histories, and view crucial primary documents. The "Online Programs" area is also worth a look, as it contains full broadcasts with experts on such topics as "Developments in the Mutual Fund Industry" and "Transformation of Wall Street". The site is rounded out by a photograph archive, which can be browsed alphabetically.
