Gary W. Derrick, “Recent Developments in Oklahoma Business and Corporate Law – 2014” (Nov. 30, 2014)

Abstract: Technological advances, increased information flows, greater productivity, and globalized expansion have produced a rate of global economic change not witnessed since the Industrial Revolution.  The law has raced to catch markets and businesses that come and go and morph in unexpected ways.  One could argue that the rapid pace of change within the financial markets – and the inability of investors and regulators to fully understand the changes – was a principal cause of the financial collapse and resulting recession. In some ways, the law still struggles to keep up.
