Course Materials

Over the past few years, the New York Stock Exchange’s listing standards have been changed dramatically. Join us for our 1st annual webcast regarding what is happening down at the NYSE. During this webcast, senior NYSE Staffers will provide a wide range of practical guidance, from what are the latest interpretations regarding their listing standards to whom do you call to resolve an issue, and much more.

Join these experts:

• John Carey, Assistant General Counsel, NYSE’s Office of General Counsel
• Anne Marie Tierney, Assistant General Counsel, NYSE’s Office of General Counsel

Among the topics of this program are:

• What are the latest interpretations regarding director independence issues? Regarding shareholder approval of equity plans?
• What is the impact of the merger with Euronext?
• What rulemakings has the NYSE proposed and adopted recently? What is on the NYSE’s rulemaking agenda for this year?
• What should companies consider when they have a material development from a NYSE listing standard perspective?
• How does one go about getting an interpretive question answered by the NYSE Staff? Where can you find the latest NYSE resources?
