Public agency disclosure is critical to promoting transparency in the municipal securities market. Investors must be informed of the risks related to an agency’s revenues and financial condition, but disclosure obligations are expanding to include emerging economic and regulatory risks. This seminar seeks to assist public agency officials and other market professionals in improving their understanding of the policy and regulatory environment surrounding municipal disclosure and how that environment may change in the future.
Day one of this seminar will focus on the fundamentals of disclosure, covering current rules for primary and continuing disclosure practices by public agencies including reporting requirements to CDIAC. Day two will focus on navigating evolving disclosure best practices in various areas of risk, including cyber and climate, through the lens of maintaining an effective disclosure team for risk assessment. Also, day two will bring participants current with the implementation of the Federal Data Transparency Act.
