SEC Eases Timing Requirements for Broker Searches
On January 23, 2026, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) published a new compliance and disclosure interpretation in Question 133.02 that provides public companies with greater flexibility to condense the broker searches in connection with their stockholder meetings. Under this new interpretation, registrants may conduct the broker search less than 20 business days before the record date for the meeting, so long as the company reasonably believes that proxy materials will be disseminated to beneficial owners on time and otherwise complies with Rule 14a-13 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (Exchange Act).

ESG in finance can refer to, among other things, financing tools such as Green, Social, and Sustainability Bonds and similar ESG-related debt instruments, as well as the separate discipline of ESG Investing. ESG stands for Environmental, Social, and Governance. Investors are increasingly applying these non-financial factors as part of their analysis to identify ESG-related risks and opportunities in particular investments. ESG metrics have not historically been included in financial reporting, though companies are increasingly making disclosures in their annual report or in a standalone sustainability report, and regulatory requirements for such disclosures, including from the SEC, are expanding.
