Corp Fin to Add Industry Offices to Bolster Disclosure Review Program

On Friday, the SEC announced that Corp Fin will add an Office of Crypto Assets and an Office of Industrial Applications and Services to the Division’s Disclosure Review Program. These new offices will join the seven current industry offices operating in Corp Fin. The SEC notes that the Office of Crypto Assets will continue the work currently performed across the Division to review filings involving crypto assets, while the Office of Industrial Applications and Services will be responsible for the non-pharma, non-biotech, and non-medicinal products companies currently assigned to the Office of Life Sciences. The new offices are expected to be up and running later this year.
