SEC Staff to Host July 18 Roundtable on Short-Term / Long-Term Management of Public Companies, Our Periodic Reporting System and Regulatory Requirements

The Securities and Exchange Commission today announced that its Division of Corporation Finance will host a roundtable on July 18, 2019 to hear from investors, issuers, and other market participants about the impact of short-termism on our capital markets and whether our reporting system, or other aspects of our regulations, should be modified to address these concerns. The roundtable will begin at 12:30 p.m. ET in the auditorium at the SEC's headquarters at 100 F Street, N.E., Washington, D.C., and will be open to the public. The event also will be webcast live on SEC.gov and archived for later viewing. The agenda is provided below.
