美國證券交易委員會提議取消上市公司季度報告製度

By

-- 美國證券交易委員會(SEC)週二表示,已提議修改規則,取消上市公司按季度提交財務報告的製度。 SEC表示,如果該提案獲得通過,公司可以選擇將目前的季度財務報告製度改為半年報告製度。 屆時,公司每個財政年度只需提交一份半年報告和一份年度報告。目前,所有公司每年都必須提交三份季度報告和一份年度報告。 SEC主席保羅·阿特金斯在一份聲明中表示:“根據聯邦證券法,上市公司有義務向投資者提供重要信息。然而,SEC規則的僵化使得公司及其投資者無法自行決定最符合自身業務需求和投資者利益的中期報告頻率。” 美國總統川普曾在9月提出以半年報告取代季度報告製度的想法。 「這將節省資金,並使管理層能夠專注於妥善經營公司,」川普當時在Truth Social網站上寫道。 阿特金斯表示,靈活決定公司報告頻率「可能會減輕上市公司的一些負擔,並可能影響公司是否上市或繼續保持上市狀態的決定」。 美國證券交易委員會(SEC)正在就取消季度報告要求的可能性徵求公眾意見。 阿特金斯說:“今天的提案只是更大規模、更全面工作的第一步,這項工作旨在審查和重塑SEC現行的上市公司規則,以規範其持續的報告義務以及在公開市場籌集資金的能力。”
