Tuesday, October 24, 2022 and Thursday, October 26, 2022

Please join us for a webinar during the Investment Company Institute’s (ICI’s) 2023 Securities Law Developments Conference.

The webinar, Practical Perspectives on Managing the Regulatory Environment Under SEC’s Chairman Gensler, will take place on Thursday, October 26, 2023 from 12:50–1:50 pm ET.*

Taking into account his completion of Chairman Jay Clayton’s term from April through June of 2021, Thanksgiving Day 2023 will mark the halfway point of Gary Gensler’s tenure as Chair of the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). With Chairman Gensler at the helm, the pace of rulemaking at the SEC has been unprecedented and at times nearly impossible for the industry to keep pace with.

Building on the theme of the previous ICI panel with SEC staff on August 25, a team of Morgan Lewis lawyers will review the last two and a half years of new, amended, and proposed rules affecting registered funds and predict what may be around the corner for the second half of Chairman Gensler’s term. Panelists will consider practical perspectives of fund advisers and their legal and compliance departments, fund boards, and fund shareholders. 

Topics will include:

  • Proxy voting
  • Money market fund re-reform
  • Cybersecurity
  • ESG
  • The “Names Rule”
  • Swing pricing
  •  Liquidity risk management

 

*Participants must register for the conference in order to attend this webinar.
