SEC Eyes Tighter Disclosure Rules Under New Boss
The SEC prepares to tighten rules on corporate bribes and commission payments as it considers ending voluntary disclosure. It seeks detailed information on recipients and locations, with potential penalties for noncompliance. A new chairman, possibly Harold Williams, looms as Carter era rules require a five year term. The agency also debates expanding option trading across major exchanges and limits positions while industry rivals vie for leadership in the growing market.
