Remarks Before The Small Business Capital Formation Advisory Committee Meeting, SEC Commissioner Elad L. Roisman, Sept. 27, 2021

Date 27/09/2021

Good morning and welcome. As is custom, I’ll start by saying: my remarks this morning are my own and do not necessarily reflect the views of the Commission or my fellow Commissioners. It’s also customary for Commissioners to say that they are looking forward to an advisory committee’s discussions, but I am especially looking forward to your discussions today. The topics you will be covering are crucial to our understanding of how smaller businesses are accessing capital, and I am particularly interested in hearing both your panelists and your discussion today.
Remarks At SEC Small Business Capital Formation Advisory Committee Meeting, SEC Commissioner Hester M. Peirce, Sept. 27, 2021

Date 27/09/2021

Thank you, Carla [Garrett] and thank you to the Committee members and today’s panelists. Welcome to Andrea [Seidt] to the Committee. I am particularly happy to have a fellow Ohioan involved. Thanks to Mike [Pieciak] for serving on the Committee. I am looking forward to today’s discussions on small business capital formation trends at this stage in the pandemic, and the changing dynamics of pre-IPO financing and going public. Two trends to be featured today – SPACs and the significant increase of institutional investor participation in late stage private capital raising rounds – demonstrate the hunger for growth opportunities in our markets. Making it possible for retail investors to get access to some of this early growth remains an important matter for the Commission’s consideration.
