Brady Commission

A group assembled by U.S. President Ronald Reagan in 1988 to investigate the causes behind the 1987 stock market crash and to make recommendations to prevent it from happening again. It recommended that limits be put on how much a security can rise or fall in price during periods of volatility (which was adopted) and that the Federal Reserve take a stronger regulatory role in securities (which was not).
