  • Statement On Procedural Requirements And Resubmission Thresholds Under Exchange Act Rule 14a-8, SEC Commissioner Elad L. Roisman, Sept. 23, 2020

    Date 23/09/2020

    Change is difficult.  Especially when something has been a certain way for as long as you can remember.  Twenty-two years have passed since the Commission last updated Rule 14a-8.  In particular, the submission threshold was last substantively reviewed and amended in 1998, and the resubmission thresholds have not been updated since 1954.  Yet, over the last several decades, not only has the composition of public company ownership changed drastically, but the ways in which shareholders communicate with companies, and with each other, have evolved with the times as well.  I believe that the only constant in our markets is the fact that they will change.  It is a regulator’s job to adjust rules to respond to, if not to anticipate, such dynamics.  It is our responsibility to adjust these rules to reflect our current markets, and the time is now.
