Unless you’ve been on extended vacation or otherwise “unplugged” for the past week or so, you know that today at 9:45am eastern time, the SEC Commissioners will take up and vote on the final climate disclosure rule. But be aware that the agenda has changed – originally, the climate disclosure was the second of two agenda items for the morning – it is now the first matter of order. Make sure you connect to the meeting on time or you may miss all or much of the discussion.
See the meeting agenda here, which will contain information on how to view the meeting online.
As soon as possible after the final rule is published (assuming a majority of the Commissioners vote to pass it), we will make it available on our website and will post blogs on it, in coordination with TheCorporateCounsel.net. I predict this rule will break the internet so we may all need a little patience in getting a copy.
Be prepared for the subsequent onslaught of articles, analyses, memos, alerts and webcasts. It’s going to be a very busy spring.
