Speech By SEC Commissioner Luis A. Aguilar: Re-designing The Eligibility Criteria For Short-Form Registration
Today the SEC is considering whether to adopt amendments to the eligibility criteria of its short-form registration process. Up to now, credit ratings have been used to determine whether a securities offering is eligible for the SEC’s streamlined short-form registration process. Under the rules in effect since 1982, a primary offering of debt securities deemed “investment grade” by a nationally recognized statistical rating organization may qualify for short-form registration, regardless of the issuer’s public float. As the Commission stated when it adopted short-form registration eligibility requirements, the goal was to “meet the objective of relating short-form registration to the existence of widespread following in the marketplace.”

Speech By SEC Commissioner Luis A. Aguilar: A Step Toward Enhanced Market Surveillance
In 1990, Congress gave the Commission authority to monitor large traders. At the time, Congress stated that it intended this authority to “greatly enhance the Commission’s understanding of how our markets are used by large traders and whether the strategies or practices employed by such large traders may pose routine or extraordinary risks, intended or not, to the stability or the integrity of our securities markets.” Today, the Commission takes the first step to implement Congress’ stated intention. The new rule before us, Rule 13h-1, would create the means for the Commission to identify and track the trading and market impact of significant market participants.
