This article sort of answers that question. My question, now is, if these firms that would "police" the market for a fee, how would the average investor access that information? Through a magazine or web site? And, what about those of us who are not "market savvy"? I assume that the government still would be in charge of prosecution and punishment. So, these firms would have turned him in? I know the SEC was warned at least 4 times about Bernie and did not act.
