On October 8, 2008, the 21st Century Disclosure Initiative hosted a formal roundtable to gather input from companies, investors, practitioners, and academics on ways to modernize the disclosure system. The Roundtable was organized into two panels. The first panel discussed the data and technology that companies and other filers use in managing their daily business, and the processes they follow to satisfy their Commission disclosure obligations. The second panel considered how the Commission could better organize and operate its disclosure system so that companies that found money enjoy efficiencies and investors have better access to high quality information.
