SEC Requests Comment on Paperwork Associated with FAST Act Amendments for Emerging Growth Companies

The SEC submitted an information collection request, titled "Simplification of Disclosure Requirements for Emerging Growth Companies and Forward Incorporation by Reference on Form S-1 for Smaller Reporting Companies,” to the Office of Management and Budget ("OMB") for review and clearance under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995. The SEC Notice was published in the Federal Register.

The information collection request is associated with recent interim final rule amendments to Form S-1 and Form F-1 adopted by the SEC to implement certain provisions of the FAST Act. Such amendments change the reporting requirements for “emerging growth” companies.
