Understanding SEC Regulatory Requirements for New Securities
Understanding SEC Regulatory Requirements for New Securities
This episode delves into the regulatory requirements for registering a new security with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). It covers the necessity for public companies to register under the Securities Act of 1933 unless an exemption applies, such as Regulation D for private placements.
The discussion includes key aspects such as filing a registration statement, the review process by the SEC to ensure compliance, the detailed prospectus used by underwriters, and the associated filing fees. The registration process duration, which can span weeks to months depending on the complexity and SEC feedback, is also highlighted.
