Regulation FD
Regulation FD (Fair Disclosure) was implemented by the SEC
during 2000
This regulation prohibits a companys executives from
selectively disclosing material information that could impact a
companys share price
This means that prior to discussing any potential stock moving
information with research analysts, the company must disclose
this information through an SEC filing
Prior to Regulation FD, some large institutional investors
received stock moving information before other investors
received it based on private discussions that a company had with
a research analyst, which was passed on selectively to favored
large investors
The benefit of this regulation is that it levels the playing field,
enabling all investors to receive the same information at the
same time
However, critics claim that because companies must now be
more careful in what they say to analysts and investors, and
when they say it, less information is distributed in a less timely
way, reducing the quality and depth of information
