US exchanges, SEC in talks to ease public company regulations

Reuters exclusively reported that U.S. exchange operators are in talks with the Securities and Exchanges Commission on easing regulatory burdens for public companies, as they seek to encourage more richly valued startups to list.

These deliberations, the details of which are reported by Reuters for the first time, involve the SEC, Nasdaq and the New York Stock Exchange. The reforms under discussion range from reducing the quantum of disclosures and the costs of going public to making it harder for minority investors to agitate, four people familiar with the matter said.
