Since the events of September 11 2001, some governments and regulatory bodies have been much more focussed on these issues and have introduced extensive and enhanced security arrangements.

In the last two decades, European Union (EU) administrative law has gone through a process of extraordinary development and consolidation. It first developed as a body of principles and rules aimed at governing, on the one hand, the action of the EU public powers (such as the action of the Commission in the fields of State aids and competition), on the other hand, the action of the national administrations operating as decentralized EU agencies (e.g. the action of national public administrations in the field of public procurement)....

Businesses that have gone "public" are subject to extremely detailed and complicated regulation about their internal governance (such as how executive officers' compensation is determined) and when and how information is disclosed to the public and their shareholders. In the United States, these regulations are primarily implemented and enforced by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Other Western nations have comparable regulatory bodies.
