There have been many disasters, frauds, collapses that caused untold sums of losses for mum/dad investors. The capitalist system needed/needs preservation.

Rules and regulations are therefore put into place for the purpose of investor protection of sorts.

The ASX is there to look after these rules/regulations. They are not their to look after small investors. The benefits us small investors get from the whole setup is a secondary result.

We live in a capitalist society with capitalist rules. IN the end, money talks!
