Hackworth spoke with GRIP about an invigorated SEC issuing transformative modernization proposals and new rulemaking. She covered:
- the potential change of going from quarterly to semi-annual reporting;
- proposals centered on reducing the disclosure burden for publicly traded companies and other companies that make disclosure to the agency;
- new rule language that would allow greater access to flexibility in pre-filing and post-filing communications around offerings;
- proposals designed to advance one of the priorities of the agency, “Making IPOs Great Again”;
- the recent no-action letter clarifying reasonable steps issuers can take to verify purchasers accredited investor status; and
- why she expects to see continued momentum around crypto and digital asset regulatory clarity coming from the US regulators.
