On January 4, 2023, the U.S. Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs released the SEC’s Fall Reg Flex Agenda.  The agenda addresses many issues, including Human Capital Management Disclosures (Proposed Rule Stage), Cybersecurity Risk Governance (Final Rule Stage), and Climate Change Disclosure (Final Rule Stage).

In a Statement on the agenda, Chair Gary Gensler said:

“I support this agenda as it reflects the need to modernize our ruleset, moving deliberately to update our rules in light of ever-changing technologies and business models in the securities markets. Our ability to meet our mission depends on having an up-to-date rulebook—consistent with our mandate from Congress, guided by economic analysis, and shaped by public input.”

As always, your thoughts and comments are welcome!
