Amendments to the Commission’s Freedom of Information Act Regulations
The Securities and Exchange Commission adopted final amendments to its Freedom of Information Act regulations to implement the FOIA Improvement Act of 2016 and streamline procedural provisions. The rule updates fee structures by allowing advance payments and removing fixed duplication fees, while revising definitions for educational, scientific, and news media requesters based on public comments. These changes replace the Commission's existing FOIA regulations in their entirety to ensure consistency with federal law and current operational practices.
