Commission Town Hall Meetings
In February, the U.S. Chamber of Commerce launched an independent, high-level, bipartisan commission entitled the Commission on the Regulation of the U.S. Capital Markets in the 21st Century. Through a series of meetings and Town Hall gatherings, the Commission will develop a consensus reform agenda to ensure the continued competitiveness of U.S. capital markets, the development of capital sources for business expansion and job creation, and the protection of investors whose savings contribute so importantly to capital formation.
Schedule of Town Hall Meetings:
- September 18, 2006: Evaluating the Future Viability and Effectiveness of Independent Auditors for Publicly Traded Companies (Chicago, IL)
- September 26, 2006: Evaluating Capital Markets and the Retirement Savings Crisis (New York, NY)
- October 12, 2006: Examining the Competitive Environment in the Global Marketplace (San Francisco, CA)
- October 20, 2006: U.S. Financial Institutions Regulation: Assessing the Efficiency, Transparency, and Investor Protections (Washington, DC)
The Town Hall Meetings are open to the public. For more information, contact Andrew Persson at 202-463-3162 or e-mail capitalmarketscommission@uschamber.com.
