Remarks At The Small Business Capital Formation Advisory Committee Meeting, Paul S. Atkins, SEC Chairman, Washington, D.C. (Delivered Virtually), Feb. 24, 2026
Date 24/02/2026
Good morning, ladies and gentlemen, and welcome to our first Committee meeting of the year. I want to start by saying how glad I am that we are able to reconvene (if only virtually) after the government shutdown forced us to cancel in the fall. That disruption only reminded me how valuable this forum is, for I have long believed that involving industry practitioners in the regulatory process makes government smarter, more responsive, and less burdensome. Indeed, your contributions bring both rigor and market insight to the SEC’s role in facilitating capital formation. So, I am grateful that this Committee can return to its regular cadence and thank you for your flexibility in light of the wintry weather conditions.

Date 24/02/2026
Thank you, President Collins, and thank you for the opportunity to speak to you today.1 Artificial intelligence is a technological phenomenon that is taking the world by storm. We read about it every day and many of us have used it in some way or another. In my lifetime, I have never seen a technological revolution like this—and I have seen the birth of space exploration, the rise of the personal computer, the explosion of the internet and then smartphones. While all transformative, none match the potential that AI has in changing our lives and doing so at breathtaking speed. Firms, households, and every government are all trying to incorporate it into the way they function and operate. And I am here to tell you that the Federal Reserve is no different.
