Investing.com——The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission is preparing a proposal to reduce the frequency of corporate disclosures from four times a year to just twice. According to The Wall Street Journal, regulators may announce the plan as early as next month, allowing listed companies to opt out of quarterly reporting.

The proposal has gained increasing support from President Trump and SEC Chairman Paul Atkins, who believe that the current mandatory requirements are overly burdensome. Supporters argue that switching to a semi-annual reporting system could help reverse the shrinking trend of the U.S. public markets by reducing administrative costs.

To prepare for the announcement, regulators have been consulting with major stock exchanges to determine how listing rules might need to be adjusted. While this change will end a 50-year mandatory requirement, it is expected that quarterly updates will become optional rather than entirely eliminated.

Last year, after long-standing stock exchanges petitioned the SEC to change disclosure frequency, momentum for this initiative gained significant traction. Although Trump explored similar measures during his first term, the current efforts mark a more formal step toward adopting a semi-annual reporting standard.

Any final rule change will still face at least a 30-day mandatory public comment period, followed by an official SEC vote. There is no guarantee that the measure will pass, especially as many institutional investors rely heavily on frequent transparency to assess their holdings’ value.

Critics of the plan point to potential volatility, but supporters emphasize that European and UK markets have already successfully relaxed similar reporting requirements. While many overseas companies still choose to report quarterly, the legal obligation to do so ended over a decade ago.
