This book analyzes the disclosure roles and responsibilities under the federal securities laws of all parties engaged in the municipal securities market, including issuers, underwriters, financial advisors, trustees, credit enhancers and their repsective counsel. The book assists lawyers in addressing two principal issues: (1) what role-specific responsibility counsel should assume for the content of disclosure and related opinions and (2) what advice counsel should provide to their clients regarding their responsibilities for disclosure.
