SEC Withdraws 14 Rulemaking Proposals, Including Rule 14a-8 Amendments

Yesterday, the SEC announced and posted a notice of formal withdrawal for fourteen notices of proposed rulemaking that were issued between March 2022 and November 2023. Not surprisingly, the list includes the 2022 proposal to amend Rule 14a-8, which would have modified three bases for excluding shareholder proposals under the rule — substantial implementation, duplication and resubmission.

This is the only withdrawn Corp Fin rulemaking proposal. The remaining thirteen relate to the Division of Investment Management and the Division of Trading and Markets.
