Speech: Improving Disclosure With Smart Data, Rick A. Fleming, SEC Investor Advocate, XBRL US Investor Forum 2016: Finding Value With Smart Data, New York, New York, Oct. 24, 2016

Date 24/10/2016

Thank you, Campbell [Pryde], for that kind introduction and for inviting me to participate in this forum today.

However, our disclosure delivery methods have not kept pace with changes in technology, and there is much that can be done to improve the delivery of information into the modern marketplace. This forum brings together many thought leaders to continue that conversation, and I look forward to hearing your ideas. Having said that, I must remind you that the views I express are my own and do not necessarily reflect those of the Commission, the Commissioners, or Commission staff.
