The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has released a report to Congress outlining the policy recommendations from the 45th Annual Government-Business Forum on Small Business Capital Formation. The forum, held on March 9, 2026, brought together participants from the public and private sectors to discuss improvements to the capital-raising framework for entrepreneurs, small businesses, and smaller public companies.
The report summarizes the proceedings of the forum, which featured remarks from each of the Commissioners and thoughtful discussions on ways to enhance policy affecting capital-raising. The SEC's Office of the Advocate for Small Business Capital Formation, mandated by Congress, organized this annual event, where stakeholders can provide feedback to refine capital-raising policy.
The Office of the Advocate expressed gratitude to the speakers, participants, advisory planning group members, and SEC staff who contributed to the success of this year's forum. Video archives and a transcript of the discussions are accessible online for further reference.
