Business Roundtable joins the U.S. Chamber of Commerce and other business groups in calling on the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and Congress to implement reforms that will improve the agency’s rulemaking process and restore public faith in the regulator. Business Roundtable Vice President of Corporate Governance William Anderson: “The SEC has a vital mandate of protecting investors, promoting efficient capital markets, and fostering capital formation. When the agency departs from its mandate or circumvents its procedures, it weakens U.S. capital markets, undermining prosperity, and economic security. Business Roundtable urges Congress to advance reforms to support strong and resilient capital markets.” Learn more ⬇
