The SEC recently voted to adopt final rules on climate change disclosure. But what does this mean? While the final rules differ from the SEC’s controversial proposed rules in significant ways, the final rules are prescriptive, and require significant new, additional disclosures.
The SEC also remains focused on other ESG-related disclosures, including potentially misleading disclosures made by public companies and by funds, and these have been the focus of enforcement actions. Finally, there are a number of additional ESG-related proposed rules pending, which may be closer to being finalized now the climate-change disclosure rules have been adopted.
Join our experts for this Intelligize-sponsored free CLE* webinar, where they’ll cover the differences in the final rules, changes to Reg S-K and S-X, scope and phase-in periods, plus other ESG-related disclosures and enforcement actions, and pending proposed rules.
