Registered Offering Reform
The Securities and Exchange Commission proposes amendments to facilitate capital formation by expanding Form S-3 eligibility to significantly more issuers through the elimination of public float and seasoning requirements. The proposal extends enhanced registration and communication benefits currently reserved for well-known seasoned issuers to a broader set of issuers and modernizes Form S-1 by expanding incorporation by reference. Additionally, the Commission proposes to preempt state securities law registration and qualification requirements for all registered offerings to reduce costs and complexity.
