The Enhancement and Standardization of Climate-Related Disclosures for Investors; Delay of Effective Date

The Securities and Exchange Commission indefinitely delays the effective date of its final rules requiring registrants to provide climate-related disclosures in registration statements and annual reports. This stay is implemented pending the completion of judicial review of consolidated petitions challenging the rules in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit. The Commission maintains that the rules are consistent with applicable law but determines that a stay avoids regulatory uncertainty and facilitates orderly judicial resolution of the challenges.
