Ukrainian-American Bar Association petitions SEC for rulemaking on Russia disclosure
We have all watched with anguish and trepidation the profound horror inflicted on Ukraine—transfixed by the brilliant and courageous fight of the Ukrainian people. That fight is also being pursued in much smaller ways, even through action at the SEC. The Ukrainian-American Bar Association, a former Ukrainian finance minister and a U.S. charity focused on Ukraine have just filed a rulemaking petition with the SEC, requesting that the SEC enact a rule requiring issuers to disclose their business dealings in and with the Russian Federation and the Republic of Belarus. Whether or not the SEC considers or accedes to the request remains to be seen, but let’s hope that Ukraine’s victory is so swift that this rulemaking becomes entirely unnecessary.
