Going Negative: The ECB’s Experience - Speech By Isabel Schnabel, Member Of The Executive Board Of The ECB, At The Roundtable On Monetary Policy, Low Interest Rates And Risk Taking At The 35th Congress Of The European Economic Association

Date 26/08/2020

In June 2014, the ECB was the first major central bank to lower one of its key interest rates into negative territory. As experience with negative interest rates was scant, the ECB proceeded cautiously over time, lowering the deposit facility rate (DFR) in small increments of 10 basis points, until it reached -0.5% in September 2019. While negative interest rates have, over time, become a standard instrument in the ECB’s toolkit, they remain controversial, both in central banking circles and academia.

Date 26/08/2020

Today’s final amendments to the description of business, legal proceedings, and risk factor disclosure requirements are common sense reforms that continue the Commission’s efforts to modernize, simplify, and update public company disclosure requirements. The release represents another step in the right direction by making the rules more principles-based and rooted in materiality, which provides registrants with sufficient flexibility to tailor disclosures to their unique circumstances.

Opening Remarks At The Open Commission Meeting To Adopt Amendments To Items 101, 103, And 105 Of Regulation S-K, SEC Commissioner Elad L. Roisman, Aug. 26, 2020

Date 26/08/2020

Thank you, Chairman Clayton, for taking the long overdue step of presenting the Commission with the opportunity to amend Items 101, 103, and 105 of Regulation S-K. The amendments we are voting on today will modernize some of the most pertinent disclosure that we require our public reporting companies to provide to investors and potential investors. These items of Regulation S-K mandate disclosure of a company’s description of its business, its pending legal proceedings, and the factors that make an investment in the company speculative or risky. This is the narrative disclosure that allows investors to assess a particular company’s prospects for success, including whether the company has an understanding of the risks it faces and how it plans to address them.
