January 25th: SEC to Adopt Say-on-Pay Rules
– Broc Romanek, CompensationStandards.com
We have winners! The 39% that guessed that the SEC would adopt final say-on-pay rules shortly after January 21st are right! The SEC has calendared an open Commission meeting next Tuesday, January 25th to adopt these rules, as well as propose a new definition of “accredited investor” and propose reporting obligation for investment advisors to private funds.
Assuming the SEC posts its adopting release on the same day as the open Commission meeting, we will cover the new rules during our January 26th webcast: “The Latest Developments: Your Upcoming Proxy Disclosures–What You Need to Do Now!” If not, we will push back this webcast to cover the new rules as soon as the adopting release is out.
