On Oct. 14, lawyers in McGuireWoods’ SEC practice provided an informative meeting regarding updates in case law and changes in the regulatory environment. The webinar reviewed the current state of play with respect to corporate governance reforms under consideration by the SEC, Congress, the stock exchanges, and others.
