Israel Securities Authority

The Israel Securities Authority (ISA / Rashut Niiarot Erech) is the government regulatory body responsible for overseeing Israel's securities markets, including the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange (TASE). Headquartered in Jerusalem, the ISA enforces the Securities Law 5728-1968, the Joint Investment Trust Law, and the Regulation of Investment Advice Law. The ISA's legal and enforcement teams investigate insider trading, market manipulation, securities fraud, and disclosure violations. Legal professionals at the ISA review prospectuses for public offerings, oversee mutual fund regulation, enforce corporate governance standards for TASE-listed companies, and advise on regulatory reform. The ISA has been at the forefront of fintech regulation in Israel, establishing a regulatory sandbox and developing frameworks for cryptocurrency and digital asset regulation. Positions at the ISA offer young Israeli lawyers unparalleled exposure to capital markets regulation, enforcement proceedings, and financial sector policymaking.
