Public input welcomed on climate change disclosures
Mar 15, 2021
On March 15, 2021, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) issued a statement from Acting SEC Chair, Allison Herren Lee, in which she requests for public input from investors, registrants, and other market participants on climate change disclosure.
She encourages commenters to submit empirical data and other information in support of their comments. Original data from respondents, including academics, data providers, and other organizations, may assist in assessing the materiality of climate-related disclosures, and the costs and benefits of different regulatory approaches to climate disclosure.
