SEC Mulls Easing Decades-Old 'Gun-Jumping' Rules to Boost IPOs

businesslaw 2 posts · 2 accounts

The US Securities and Exchange Commission is considering changes to decades-old "gun-jumping" rules that restrict certain company communications during the IPO process. SEC Chair Paul Atkins is open to reforming the rules as the regulator looks to boost initial public offerings.

The rules limit what companies can say while going public, governing certain communications during the offering process. Revisiting them would mark a potential loosening of long-standing IPO restrictions as the SEC seeks to encourage more public offerings.
