Rulemaking Activity

This page lists rulemaking activity grouped by file number, which allows you to view the proposed rules, final rules and other actions related to a particular rulemaking. You can sort this list by most recent action, file number, or the informal short name of the rulemaking. By using the "Status" filter, you can view rulemakings that have been completed, or rulemakings that have been proposed but not yet completed. You can also filter to display rulemakings related to a specific SEC division or office. This index omits certain technical rulemakings, including updates to the EDGAR filing manual.

The Regulatory Flexibility Act (“RFA”) requires each federal agency in April and October of each year to publish in the Federal Register an agenda identifying rules that the agency expects to consider in the next twelve months that are likely to have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities. The RFA specifically provides that publication of the agenda does not preclude an agency from considering or acting on any matter not included in the agenda, and that an agency is not required to consider or act on any matter that is included in the agenda. The current Unified Agenda of Federal Regulatory and Deregulatory Actions can be found at www.reginfo.gov. Learn how to submit comments.
