Remarks at the Florida Bar’s 41st Annual Federal Securities Institute and M&A Conference

US-based SEC has emphasized its role in facilitating capital formation while also addressing climate-related disclosures. The SEC is currently deliberating over a challenged climate-related disclosure rule and is reviewing its approach to regulatory frameworks. The Acting Chairman shared concerns about the potential economic impact of climate-related disclosure regulations and plans to explore more focused regulatory changes regarding retail investment in private companies. As part of this commitment, the SEC’s task force aims to create a balanced framework that supports both innovation and sustainable practices in the financial markets.
