13F Call to Action
|
We need your help.
Shareholder transparency is the perennial top issue for IR professionals. NIRI has advocated on behalf of public companies for many years to improve transparency, and we were pleased with the relatively recent 13D-G reform.
13F modernization has been more challenging. These filings are required just four times a year, and 45 days after the end of the quarter, which seems antiquated given how dramatically technology has transformed financial markets since this rule was enacted in 1979. 13D filings are now required five business days after crossing the 5% ownership threshold. US equity markets move to T+1 settlement on May 1. Computers execute stock trades in millionths of seconds.
NIRI is pursuing a two-pronged 13F reform approach. We are (1) seeking congressional legislation authorizing the SEC to move from quarterly disclosures to monthly disclosures, and (2) pursuing shortening the reporting deadline from 45 days to a more reasonable requirement.
I’m pleased to let you know that NIRI has partnered with the Society for Corporate Governance and the New York Stock Exchange on a new proposal requesting the SEC initiate a 13F rulemaking process that would, among other things, reduce the quarterly disclosure period from 45 calendar days to five business days, in line with the new 13D deadline.
We now need your help by submitting letters supporting this proposal. We’ve prepared a downloadable draft support letter template that your companies can tailor and submit to the SEC. Please be sure to submit comment letters via email to “rule-comments@sec.gov” and that File No. 4-825 is noted in the subject line.
When presenting on this topic, I’m often asked, “How can I help?” This is your opportunity to help!
Please support this initiative to address your number one challenge.
Thank you,
Matt
