| | S&W LLP -> S&W in Print -> S&W Publications -> SEC Mandates EDGAR Filings for Foreign Issuers and ... (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26) |
 | | When the foreign private issuer makes its initial public filing of a registration statement under the Securities Act or Exchange Act, however, the public filing must be submitted electronically, as well as any letters responding to SEC comments or related correspondence (response letters and other related correspondence will not be publicly available). |
 | | Foreign private issuers may concurrently submit a paper copy of the unabridged foreign language document under Form SE, and the SEC recommends that foreign private issuers post their foreign language documents on their corporate web sites for investor access. |
 | | Although foreign private issuers may initially find compliance with the new SEC rules burdensome, the benefits expected to be realized by investors, the SEC and ultimately foreign private issuers, such as speed, convenience and exposure, should outweigh associated burdens. |
