<p><span>Today, the Commission is considering a proposal to mandate climate-risk disclosures by public companies. I am pleased to support today’s proposal because, if adopted, it would provide investors with consistent, comparable, and decision-useful information for making their investment decisions and would provide consistent and clear reporting obligations for issuers. </span></p>
<p><span>Today, the Commission is considering amendments to include significant Treasury markets platforms within Regulation ATS. I support these amendments because, if adopted, they would help promote resiliency and greater access in the Treasury market. We’re also considering modernizing our rules related to the definition of an exchange. Over the decades since Congress put in place the definition of an exchange, there have been many changes to platforms — in particular, that they are increasingly electronified. I think it’s important that we revise the SEC’s rules to reflect those changes.</span></p>
<p><span>Today, the Securities and Exchange Commission adopted final amendments to its rules implementing the Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act of 2020 (HFCAA). Today’s amendments finalize the interim final rules that the Commission adopted in March, which had addressed the submission and disclosure requirements of the HFCAA, with two modifications. First, they clarify how the requirements apply to variable interest entities. Second, they include requirements to tag information such as the auditor name and location. Today’s release also establishes procedures the Commission will follow in identifying issuers and prohibiting trading by certain issuers under the Act.</span></p>
<p><span>I support today’s action to re-open comment on the Dodd-Frank Act rule regarding clawbacks of erroneously awarded incentive-based compensation. I believe we have an opportunity to strengthen the transparency and quality of corporate financial statements as well as the accountability of corporate executives to their investors.</span></p>

Statement On Adoption Of Resource Extraction Disclosure Rules, SEC Chairman Jay Clayton, Dec. 16, 2020 Date 16/12/2020 Good morning. This is an open meeting of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on December 16, 2020, under the Government in the Sunshine Act. Today, we take another step in a winding, resource-consuming, decade-long journey to implement Section 1504 of the Dodd-Frank Act. In 2010, Section 1504 added Section 13(q) to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, which directed the Commission to issue rules, commonly known as the “resource extraction rules,” requiring resource extraction issuers – in essence, certain companies publicly traded on U.S. exchanges – to disclose information about payments made to a foreign government or the Federal government for the purpose of the commercial development of oil, natural gas, or minerals.
