Abstract
This research focuses on how companies were impacted by the Blue Sky Laws that were enacted in the 1920s and 30s. Blue Sky Laws were enforced by state regulators to increase transparency between issuers of securities and buyers to decrease fraudulent security sales. This research also shows how the companies that filed financial documents were impacted by the Great Depression, since that is when the Blue Sky Laws were in effect.
