Today is the end of the comment period on the SEC’s proposing release concerning Regulation A+.  A number of comment letters already have been filed and are available here: http://www.sec.gov/comments/s7-11-13/s71113.shtml.  Additional comment letters are likely to be received in the next few days.  The letters overwhelmingly support the SEC’s approach.

In a recent speech, SEC Chair White noted that the SEC remains focused on various investor protection measures related to the JOBS Act.  She noted that the SEC is considering Staff recommendations for final rules related to the SEC’s proposal from last summer relating to proposed amendments to Regulation D, Form D and Rule 156.  Read her full remarks here:  http://www.sec.gov/News/Speech/Detail/Speech/1370541226174#.UzC3CyXD8xo.  White noted that the SEC’s “ultimate goal is to craft rules that provide effective, workable paths for companies to raise capital that also protect investors.”  So, it would appear that we should expect to learn more soon on this.
