Dissenting Statement On Buybacks Disclosure Proposal, SEC Commissioner Hester M. Peirce, Dec. 15, 2021

Date 15/12/2021

Thank you, Chair Gensler. Both dividends and share repurchases are ways companies return cash to shareholders. Yet, say “dividend,” and nobody gets angry, but say “share buyback,” and the rage boils over. Today’s proposal channels some of that rage against repurchases in a way that only a regulator can—through painfully granular, unnecessarily frequent disclosure obligations. This proposal requires daily repurchase disclosure to be furnished with the Commission one business day after execution. Because I do not support the indirect regulation of corporate activity through disclosure requirements, I respectfully dissent.
